FAQ

[Gregory Nowak]

I might disagree with that.
I had a chance to try out both wineyes
and jfw for as long as I wanted and I could've
done anything I wanted on the machine.
After about 30 minutes with jfw,
I walked away from the system running it 
in disgust, and said that it 
was shitty, politly of course.
I then used wineyes for 2 hours, and found that
for the most part I loved it.
I of course chose to buy it as my
windows screenreader afterwords.
