Hello Everyone:-)
Well, being a rather new Kurzweil I am learning a lot about the software.
The Commission here was leaning toward Openbook but I told him between
reading about both and getting a couple of strong recommendations for
Kurzweil1000 I wanted to go with it. Actually the folks at the Oregon
commission here in Portland are some the best people I have worked with.

Subject: [bksvol-discuss] The Wonders of Kurzweil
Please stop the onslaught! I've wanted K1K since last year when I was
working to get new software from the state. Instead of listening to me
however they purchased OpenBook. Currently I'm attempting to get them to let
me trade in my OB for a copy of Kurzweil.
OpenBooks scans aren't actually bad, but that shouldn't be surprising since
the main engine is Fine Reader. It lacks greatly in updates and in *many*
features that Kurzweil has, some small, some big. Some of them I would think
would be easy to code, but Freedom Scientific seems to be content to chug
along with what the program has in place already. For goodness sakes they
could update the Microsoft Common Dialogue controls so the Open, Save, etc.
dialogues work fully in a Windows XP environment.
So just so you know everytime someone mentions a K1K feature I'm drueling in
envy.
Cheers!
Jake
