Hi all,
I'm surprised by this thread on two counts. The reluctance of Jaws to shut
up is a problem that I have encountered before, but certainly not as
recently as in Jaws 5.0 or 6.0. My machine, which generally suffers from
all known ailments, shuts up the instant you touch almost any key.
As for Eloquence, I used to dislike it, but have gradually come to prefer it
to everything else, i.e. so long as you stay away from the British voices.
They really are appalling. Most of the time, I don't even notice the
American accent.

I've been using Jaws with the synthesizer called Text Assist for 9 years,
but it don't work with XP, to which I recently upgraded, so I've had to use
the awful Eloquence. Actually there are some features which this does
better, but if I have it yakking away and try to stop it with the Control
key, it usually takes a very long time to react.
Any ideas? JFW 5.1 and Sound Blaster 5.12, if that matters.
