Since we are on screenreaders, you told me earlier you were going to do this
for linux, make a distro something called pro speech, I guess this is along the
same lines.

However I fail to see why ms releases xp and vista in the same year.
I'd rather get xpsp3 and then later sp4 rather than vista.
Would be different if ms just said xp was going to die real soon, but its life
has been extended.
And by the time xpsp4 dies if xpsp4 actually comes out, there

If you mean my screen reader project I am developing it for Windows
2000, XP, and Vista.
Right now it isn't much better than Windows narater , but it is coming

Btw. when it is ready for 1.0 release I plan to offer it as a free

Hi Shaun,
How about we move the screen reader discussion over to the USA Games
discussion list since it is or will be one of my products. However,
since I have this email open here is a little blurb about it.
The screen reader right now isn't to the point I would replace Jaws or

Hi,
short answer is because it is Microsoft. They need a good reason to have
everyone pay for an upgrade and get features they probably don't need or
want.
If you stick with XP and get SP3 which is f ree Microsoft isn't getting
any money out of that. Therefore Vista is what you will end up
Hi Shaun,
Fortunately, for me I am working on a screen reader which I will replace
the expensive screen readers with, and once I am able to actually get my
hands on vista I can test how much of the access API MS broke and I need
to fix.
However, my screen reader project here isn't stable all

Thanks for the post. This was a very good one, and I am glad to here the

Yeah, and given a choice I would probably still pick 2K over XP except
most of the development stuff for .NET is geared for XP and Vista.

boxes that are core components, I wouldn't upgrade, I'd rather get xp...

You are getting the point. The Vista interface is basically a fully
integrated Internet Exploder 7 which is

Yeah, that was funny. I was in college then and I remember when that
happened. I also remember evaluating 98 1st eddition at campass to see
how it worked with access. Answer was noth very much, and it crashed on

Hi,
A caution. Much of what has been said is informed speculation. Meaning
speculation compiled based on information those known or asumed to be
true. We won't know the status until someone gets Vista and starts
putting the games to the test. Although, I will scope out the DirectX 10

Yeah, with sp3 for XP on the way and someday perhaps a sp4 XP should
still have quite a bit of life in it.

well its disgusting.
Since xp will stay around for an age yet I'm not to worried.
However For now I hate the ie7 interface, I really do.
We will see in the next little while when I spend the dough on screenreaders.

Hi Shaun
This ofcause puts the question why ms is releasing vista at all when there are
2 more or at least 1 definate service pack of xp coming.
This should give everyone time to adapt to vista, who knows maybe we will be
passed vista by then.
Maybe someone will find ways to make the more anoying
The answer is simple. MS is doing what it always has. Look at the
current Windows. XP has been out for some time now, yet there were still
service packs for Windows 2k which in many ways was even more stable
than XP itself.
Releasing Vista is no different. MS will support XP for a while yet

I don't know whether this has been discussed while I was away, but I'd like to
tell you guys about this interesting article I read in a computer magazine

Mind you not all of what I am about to say here I am totally sure

Hi Ari,
The entire problem with Vista for us is that Microsoft is being very
silent and tight jawed about Vista except what they want you to know.
I've only managed to find out tidbits through talking to other devs who
have tested it, and stuff I read between the lines on the Vista Platform

Yeah, I usually wait as well. I wait for the dust to settle and for the

However if this article rings true it means that games for the blind will have

Either that or have dx9 and 10 support for backward compatibility.
I doubt that I will upgrade to vista and in deed upgrade for a few years yet.
