OoooooooOh I could get myself in major trouble here!

In terms of price, reliability, and functionality, and over all direct company customer care/support I do believe GWMicro have the way way way way way upper hand as of the date of this email.

Where I get a bti annoyed is Eye's keyboard map. With the exception of the synth toggles on insert cursors and title bar/time/system tray I hate the rest of them!

In saying this Eyes would be my main screenreader if I could get somebody to do me a Jaws keyboard map for it.

I'm far too lazy to do this myself.

that may be so, George:  But GW Micro etc. charge the same price for the
Window-eyes version (the main competitive screen reader) that works with
both XP home and Pro; and nothing extra either for Remote Assistance.
True, they increased the price (though by not as much as FS etc. are
charging) to take account of XP pro.  They didn't have NT support
either.  Haven't heard complaints about Window-Eyes not working on
Windows XP Pro or with Remote Assistance.

Actually it is approximately 20% more expensive to buy the Professional, as opposed to the Standard.

An upgrade however is £270, which is equivalent to 40% of
the Standard price of £655.

At one time, I did feel the difference was rather excessive,
but after 4 or 5 years of providing technical support, I can
assure you that the level of knowledge and expertise
required to support Windows XP Professional more than
justifies it.

The bottom line is that if you do not require Fort Knox type
security, stick with XP Home.

The exception to this are unfortunately students who wish to
access school, university and college networks.  The vast
majority of admins will not allow the use of XP Home in such
cases.

George.

...and Jaws pro (a total rip-off) costs about twice that
of
the standard version.
