Hello all, since the topic of eloquence for NVDA has been a hot topic on this list I will try to make it clear from what I know, I have heard of the eloquence for NBA is somewhat illegal however I have heard that it is not as well I have downloaded and used both versions and I have not had a problem, however the reason I posted my earlier message, was to give Elizabeth a suggestion, I know it was not ideal but if it meant that she was able to take a test independently then it would be OK, hope this helps
