Lou,
Clearly, each company has its priorities. GW Micro has good support for
Office now, but it's taken them a long time to get there. And so far I'm
not very impressed with their braille display support, although I hear it's
better in version 6. who knows, they're getting involved in other products,
and they may start falling behind too.
