Not to mention that lots of people just can't afford to have the latest and
greatest but most expensive JAWS out on the market today.

Sure. I know perfectly well there are updates to JAWS past JAWS 11.
Unfortunately the pointed headed pencil-necked budget geeks attached to the
public location where I can use JAWS 11 did not think to buy the license
with upgrade option.
I can see how they feel about installing NVDA. I can try NVDA at home.
The point is the most current software version CANNOT be assumed in lots of
real world situations.
But thanks for the tip and I will add trying Google Chrome to my to-do list.

It's supposed to work reasonably well with NVDA, but I haven't done much
more with it than just dabble, so although I believe that's the case, I
can't swear by it.
Also, be careful about basing the current state of Chrome and JAWS with what
it was just a short while ago. Google has put out quite a few updates
recently and I know they've put some effort into accessibility and working
with the different accessibility frameworks across multiple platforms. Also,
there have been a few updates to JAWS since JAWS 11.
If you're interested in Chrome's accessibility, and you're tired of IE and
Firefox, then give it a try and see what it's current state of accessibility
is with JAWS, Window Eyes, NVDA, System Access or Orca.
