The reason there are so many JAWS users, is that government
organizations bought them. Most Window Eyes users had to buy it
themselves. JAWS is a good program, but for me it is loaded down with so
much stuff that I don't need. I still use We most of the time, using
JAWS trying to get use to it in case WE doesn't work with the upcoming
Win 10 upgrade. Too bad they didn't utilize Doug's knowledge and let him
incorporate the better things in WE into JAWS.

While I believe what you say, why are there so many Jaws users, even
some here, who swear by Jaws? They can't all be ignorant, can they?
What I am guessing is happening is, each screen reader has its issues
and some websites work better on WE, and other websites work better on
Jaws. Of course, that is a separate issue from other issues involving
the overall stability of each reader.

Well, I've been using Jaws for a while now and I must confess the
Window-eyes was the much better product both in speed, browsing,
usability, layout, and so much more. Like on the Ohio Lottery Website,
when reading the pick 5 Jaws will not scroll down continuously down
the page like NVDA, Narrator, and Window-eyes do. I also find
Window-eyes synthesizer support was much better. I am not whining, I
am just bemoaning the fact that a company got by with trashing a
product completely, borrowing or using nothing from the product they
trashed and acting like Window-eyes never existed, not to mention
charging so much for the product. Don't give me that similar stuff,
because I've found webpages where Jaws just doesn't work and NVDA and
Narrator do.
So why won't I just shut up? I will, just wanted to point out in my
view what I've realized, and hopefully NVDA, Narrator and others will
be able to say Thank You to VFO for pushing us to a day when a 2
thousand dollar screen reader is no longer need.
Thanks for reading, I'm now shutting up.
