Hi Anouk,
I'd be interested in hearing your experiences with nvda and braille displays.
Off list of course. I always meant to try it but have lost track of NVDa over
the years.
There are actually two versions of system access. SA2go requires an internet
connection but is free. System acces
Hi, I would like to add to this. In the Netherlands it is quite common
for someone to also be able to get a braille display, I am not sure with
system access but, at least imho, nvda is not ideal for braille only
users. Voiceover works better in this way.
Also, I have only used system access onc
further behind if they cannot afford the yearly charges for
upgrades.

the Mac than on Windows. Besides which, most agencies buy Jaws because
it is, or was, the gold standard and is still the biggest name in
screen reading today, and no one considers alternatives like SAToGo or
NVDA.

To add a different perspective on the screen reader cost issue, depending on
the needs of the end user, the "mac is cheaper in the long run" argument may
not hold, because there are now perfectly adequate low or no cost screen
reading solutions for Windows, namely NVDA and System Access. In the

Hello Paul,
I would just like to add that for people who use several languages, the Mac
