Hi trouble,
I couldn't agree more. I wish vendors wouldn't slam the products of other
vendors, especially, as you say, since jobs are on the line. Window-Eyes
simply isn't as full featured as JAWS. It is just that simple. JAWS
certainly has the edge when it comes to productivity applications such as
Microsoft Office. Its operation with Office is both cleaner and more
functional. But Window-Eyes does currently enjoy one major advantage over
JAWS; that is its ability to provide remote access through Citrix and
Microsoft Terminal Services.
