You would think that with the free screen reading software out there, you 
would think JAWS would be better in pricing.  We all should drop it an go 
FREE!  Gary KB2YAA  What is the value of a hug if you don't share it?

Re Free Screen Reading Programs...

I am hearing really positive feedback about the NVDA screen reading program
which is entirely free. I am not using it, but I am sure thinking seriously
about switching over to it instead of shelling out bucks all of the time on
this JAWS program. The one person I know who uses the NVDA screen reading
program is Riley, KL3RH; so, you can check with him to see what he tells you
about it. I think he uses JAWS too.
