Hi all,
When I'm on mailing lists and users start debating about whether JAWS or WE is the best, the moderators usually just close it down, saying it's a personal thing, and there shouldn't be arguments like that. I'd like to know if anyone has an article or link to a place where, using the latest versions of JAWS and WE, experts or users are having a no-holds-barred comparison or argument about which one is better. Especially when one thinks that they both cost so much money, the last thing I want is reading articles where everyone's trying to be nice about the rival product, want something where WE and JAWS users try to out-do each other.
Thanks guys

I've used both products. At this point, I truly believe they run neck and neck. There is, however, one plus about Window Eyes! No product activation! I say ths because at this juncture in time, the Jaws activation is giving me fits. Anyway, both are good products, and now with Window Eyes' scripting support, I really feel that it's on par with JFW.

there is product activation for us in South Africa. It's only the US, UK, Aus and New Zealand who doesn't have PA.
