I agree,  I find jaws to work better with what I use, office apps, and a few
other things I tried it with so that's why I made my choice, an agency
bought it for me, and they gave me my choice, I tried both demos and gave
them y choice and don't regret it though I did see a lot of good points with
WE, JFW just did what I want better.

| Since both progs cost a significant amount of money, I'd try to evalu both
of
| them.  Personally, I prefer JFW as it works much better with MS Office
apps
| and MSN, but as was mentioned, each has pluses and minueses.

| Hi all,
|
| I agree with the comments made here, with this added point:
|
| Window Eyes and Window Eyes Pro costs a few hundred dollars less than JFW.
|
| If you are spending your own money as I did then this is a significant
| consideration.  Also, I don't like the JFW copy protection scheme.  Others
| live with it, but I am glad not to have to worry with it.
|
| JFW does work slightly better when dealing with columns and tables, but
| this is of no concern for my computer use.  And I think Window Eyes works
| better for my web useage.
