I tried to look through my contacts with NVDA and it didn't work. I'm using
Office 2007 Professional and I had to reboot the computer to get JAWS up and
going again and straighten out the mess I got myself in.

I use NVDA on a flash drive to work on my friends computers but that's about
it.

I have been using JAWS since 1996 and I'm not going anywhere.

Subject: Question about Jaws vs. NVDA

Hi everyone,

First, I want to apologize if this isn't an appropriate question for this 
list. I understand it is primarily a JAWS list . If any of you have info or 
opinions you could share with me though, perhaps you won't mind answering 
off-list?

I am trying to determine how the free NVDA product compares with JAWS for 
basic screen reading. I don't use most of the bells and whistles of JAWS 
anyway and am wondering if I should re-new my SMA agreement. If NVDA will do

most of what JAWS does, I am thinking that may be just as good for my needs.

I have never used it though and have my doubts whether it is as functional 
as JAWS.

Any suggestions or thoughts about this will be appreciated.

Have a great day!
Nikki B.
