Hi,
Is there documentation to prove that HJ would sue the state agencies?
I worked for one of these agencies from 1991 to 2006 and we would
recommend what was best for the client, some screenr eaders got more
love than others but I can't remember ever being afraide or being told
by my superviser to recommend one screenr eader over another.
Some screen readers just couldn't keep up, Window Bridge, Artic
Winvision, ASAW and Screen Power just to name a few.

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.

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.

There was a time when I was thinking about being a Window-eyes distributor.
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.

Yes JAWS is bloted and they're coming out with a new version, called 2018.
Honestly Window-Eyes should had been the one to get the contracts in
the agencies, not JAWS.
