I have to say, I used Windows every day for over a year, then slowly less and less as I started the transition to the Mac, with only NVDA. I never ran into a single problem, and in fact had a much smoother experience overall. NVDA has only gotten better since those days, too. And yes, before that I used Jaws for years, so I'm not trying to compare NVDA to something I never used (that's what I meant by smoother - NVDA ran better and with fewer bugs and oddities than Jaws ever has). The Mac is still the most seamless experience of all, but NVDA worked just fine and I never once needed Jaws or WE. On Sep 1, 2014, at 3:14 PM, Sabahattin Gucukoglu <listse...@me.com> wrote:
