I think you'll be satisfied using NVDA. Everything that works with JAWS
seems also to work with NVDA. There is also the benefit of mouse tracking;
which you don't get with JAWS.

You can try demos of JAWS by Freedom Scientific and windoweyes by
GWMicro.
And there is the free NVDA screen reader.

Subject: [Audyssey] Windows screen reader software?
| Hi folks,
|
| My apologies if I bring up a question that has already been discussed
to
| death, but I don't see anything about this in a casual browsing of the
| archives.
|
| At first I thought I didn't have any screen reader software, so I
| couldn't test the accessibility of my RSW website directly. But then
I
| realized that every Mac has VoiceOver built-in, and it's quite nice!
| I've been going through my web pages with VoiceOver, and I've found a
| number of minor issues that I'll be correcting.
|
| But I'd hate to fine-tune my pages to VoiceOver's quirks only, without
| knowing about similar quirks in other software. In particular, what
do
| Windows users typically use to browse the web? I see that Narrator is
| built-in to Windows, but it's almost unusable. Even Narrator itself
| recommends users buy a third-party program instead.
|
| So, if I were to purchase one such third-party program for the purpose
| of testing my website's accessibility under Windows, which program
| should it be?
|
| Thanks!
| David
