That may be true, but I wouldn't have had the job I've had for the last 
15 years without JAWS. System Access and Window Eyes just don't provide 
access to the applications I need to do my job with my employer. I'd 
gladly pay much more than I do for JAWS if it meant keeping my job.

BTW, I don't think the narrow list bandwidth is served well by people 
just expressing their gratitude for not using a particular screen 
reader. I'd hope we could keep our list bandwidth to something more 
helpful and constructive. There are plenty of other lists and places 
where people can run down a product they don't use.
