Hello Pan. That was because in the 1990's, Henter-Joyce, now called VFO, sued any state agencies who did not purchase JAWS to either buy JAWS or be sued. Originally, When the earlier screen readers were coming out, the VR counsollers said they would start out offering all of the screen readers, such as Artic, Widow-Eyes, Window Bridge, etc to clients, but then they'd end up pushing everybody towards JAWS because they weren't able to really support all of them and these VR professionals were still worried about being sued by HJ so it was a combination of the lawsuits that HJ filed around that got them using JAWS and only JAWS. -----Original Message----- From: Talk [mailto:talk-bounces+skyt=shaw...@lists.window-eyes.com] On Behalf Of Pamela Dominguez via Talk Sent: Tuesday, July 11, 2017 3:25 PM To: Charles Adkins; Window-Eyes Discussion List Subject: Re: jaws list
That's interesting; because back in the late 1980s, and 1990, when they first were going to give me stuff, they tried me out on everything they had to see which one would work the best for me. The second time I was going to get equipment from the commission, I asked about the evaluation, and I was basically told, there is nothing to evaluate you on; you get what you get.

I was amazed at how many rehab people, companies, and even people wouldn't even look at Window-eyes. Councelors thought the idea of maybe letting clients look at both products and making their own choice was a foriegn concept. Amazingly enough the fact that Window-eyes did cost less didn't even interest anyone. I could do stuff on the web with Window-eyes Jaws users told me was impossible.
