Hi Scott, That is not an assumption. That is my personal opinion based on, my level of skill with both screen readers, word processors, how I use them, and operating systems. By all means, you can disagree. Different strokes for different folks. I think we might have a different view of "broad general assumptions". I would view the statement. I think all flowers are yellow" as a broad general assumption. :). In this case though, there is a lot of personal preference involved. A big part of the equation is the tasks one is trying to do with there word processor. I stick by my opinion for what its worth. Something can come a long tomorrow that makes me change my mind. I will certainly make the list aware of this. But until then...
