Re: academics and employment
Gene
Please read my message again. I said nothing
of the sort. I have discussed what I said in other messages that you will
see.
As for which I prefer, for general nonwork and
academic use, I prefer NVDA. I haven't used JAWS to any extent for
years.
There are academic and work settings where NVDA
would be fine. There are many in which it would fall short and some of
those could be corrected by user definable parameters available in JAWS,
allowing someone who is not knowledgeable about writing NVDA scripts to do what
is necessary. That means that JAWS can be modified in many instances by
someone far more quickly, such as a DVR employee or contractor who might go to
the work site and do so. With NVDA, the modifications would be done by
someone writing a script, and even if it would be advantageous to have the
person do so on the web site to see if the work meets the specific program use
requirements well, the person would usually be scripting at a distance, using
information about what is needed. And time might be lost finding
someone willing to write the script.

Subject: Re: [nvda] academics and employment Yes, it appears from what I read that Gene prefers Jaws over NVDA. We all have the right to our own opinions. We should be able to agree to disagree. After all, that's what life is all about--differing viewpoints. I used Jaws for years and both Jaws and NVDA are great programs. NVDA serves my needs very well.

Since when did human society degrade to such a point that people cannot have different viewpoints on issues. I happen to agree with Michael that I do like NVDA better than JAWS. THat is not to say JAWS is a bad product. I just prefer NVDA over JAWS. Jean, it appears that you prefer JAWS over NVDA. That's cool to. Can't we just agree to disagree?"
