have a hand in configuring in that manner for your protection.

[JAWS-Users] JAWS 14 with Windows 8

Hello Everyone,

I am about to purchase a new laptop.  I am trying to decide rather to go
ahead and get a Windows 8 machine or try to find one with Windows 7.  I am
using JAWS 14, which does work with Windows 8.  However, I have been told by
some that Windows 8 is difficult to use with a screen reader.  I am curious

was kind of for me was that things aren;'t all where you know them to be.
Some things work differently too. So yeah, it's not all that bad. The start

would go for it if it were me. You're very wize to ask how it works. I

Re: [JAWS-Users] JAWS 14 with Windows 8

2013-02-13 Thread Steve

Certainly, Win 8 is useable by Jaws 14 etc.

I guess I'm an old fuddy-duddy, comments like what is below don't seem to be 
very helpful.  Here are some considerations to bear in mind:


1.  Win 8 layout is completely different from earlier versions.  I do AT 
training, and there are several people who have upgraded to Win 8 and 
subsequently had their systems rolled back to Win 7.  Yes, there are 
workarounds like classic shell etc. but the Win 8 experience is if not quite 
radically different, it is certainly a lot more unique that previous 
upgrades.


Second, you may not have support for some of your programs in Win 8, I don't 
know if Openbook has released a patch to work in Win 8 yet, for example.


If you are getting a new computer, then there are some nice advantages with 
Win 8 including Safeboot.  But, since there are so many sighted users 
unhappy with Win 8, for my money, I'm sticking with Win 7 which will be 
supported for another seven years, and I'll await a more user-friendly 
Windows 9 which will probably be out sooner than later.  I think Win 8 is 
Microsoft's latest equivalent of Windows ME and Vista, as Herman and His 
Hermits would say A Must to Avoid!


Take my advice, I don't use it anyway.

[JAWS-Users] JAWS 14 with Windows 8

2013-02-13 Thread jim
Hi Scott:

I made the decision to buy a new windows 7 desktop computer in November.
I read the how to use windows 8 books from bookshare.
I decided for now to stay with windows 7, even though for the most part windows 
8 looks like it works very well with Jaws.
I am very happy with my choice, I am one who is not afraid to learn new things.
I just think for me that windows 7 is smooth and secure right out of the box, 
and very accessible with jaws.
I had no problems setting the new computer up and installing my programs.
I have a 3.6 GHZ AMD FX-4100 quad processor with 6 GB of ram and a TB of 
storage.
I was able to buy this computer cheaper because it was a windows 7 instead of a 
w-8.
So keep that in mind as well as you shop for a computer, you should be able to 
get a more powerful windows 7 computer for the same money as a less powerful 
window 8 one , in my opinion.

Jim

God bless...

Cool man. Like I said. It's your choice in the end, and yeah, I guess if
there are things that don't work then yeah that is something to be carefull
of. Like Open Book for instance. Come to think of it, Magic is another
example. It don't work. I guess that the lay out thing didn't really bother
me as much as it did others. That's fine I guess. I guess my main theme
should have been try it out for your self and see what you think. Take a win
8 PC out for a spin in other words. But I guess you said you'll stick with
Win 7 though. That's fine. I was just saying it's fine, win 8 is fine that
is, and it was good of you to ask. It would have been even cooler if you
could try it out which I don't know if you have. Paull Thurott guesses that
Win 9 will be more metro like then Win 8 already is. But who knows. We'll
just have to weight and see.
