[blindkid] Jaws vs Window Eyes

[Marianne Denning]

You can set up Window Eyes so it functions like JAWS.  JAWS takes
advantage of all of the Windows key board commands that are built into
Windows.  Window Eyes has different commands unless you set it up to
be like JAWS.  It would depend on how you use your computer to know
which is the better program.  Since it is free you can certainly put
it on your computer and play around with it.  You could switch back
and forth between the 2 screen readers.  NVDA is also another free
screen reader.
