If you are going to use office and Outlook, there is no escaping the ribbons. Eventually, you learn Alt what to hit and just go there. The ribbons are sort of, in my mind, a sideways menu. If your fiances are a problem, 365 might be the way to go, since you just pay as you use it, $9.99 a month. It does cost more in the long run, but you might not want to run for a long time, or something else could become available.

I'm using Jaws 16 and Windows 7 64. I don't like the ribbons in Word pad. My questions are. 1: Which version of Office with Outlook works best today with Jaws 16 or 17? 2. Where can I get a good deal on older versions if they are still best? 3. Are there subsidies for blind people who are not students or employed? 4. Has anyone used Office 360 who can compare it to older versions? Lots of questions. I simply feel it is about time I got learning and using office with Outlook. I don't have any specific goals. Just want to see if I might be better organized using these tools.
