Actually i've found youtube to be pretty easy to use, at least the
website itself is. What i sometimes have a bit of trouble with is when
you're on a website and someone has imbeded a youtube video on there,
the buttons to start and stop the video aren't always labeled. I guess
this is why they call them personal computers. everyone's experiences
are different. I'm truely sorry so many of you guys aren't having a more
positive experience with wineyes. apart from that little trouble i had
with thunderbird a couple days ago 7.5.2.0 has been running great here.

Try going to a web site like youtube where flash is used. It will
lock up about half the time. GW admits that this is a problem but has
no solution. The guys at GW admit also that they don't use IE 9
because of such problems.

I'm afraid I'm going to have to very respectfully disagree about IE 9. I
just upgraded a while back and have had absolutely no trouble using it
at all. in fact, i'm noticing that pages load even faster with IE 9. As
for flash...it's all in how it's implemented. Some web authors use flash
without implementing accessibility, which is why you see pages that have
unlabeled buttons. So, it's all in how it's written up.

Has GW lost its relationship with Microsoft and adobe thus limiting WE
ability to work well with the latest versions? Will GW ever catch up and
not be a good screen reader but at the top when it comes to supporting
the latest and greatest.
To my knowledge, they still have very good relationships with both
Microsoft and Adobe, i'm sure one of the GW guys will respond as well.
But for me, i'm actually really glad I upgraded to ie 9. and whenever
possible I contact the website developer where there are unlabeled
buttons and explain to them that they can implement accessibility and
label those buttons.
