Rule Number 1 - Assuming that you have a valid contract in place always try to get your poo onto your timesheet, provided that the timesheet is valid for your current contract and covers the period of time that you are billing for.
I preferred version 1! -

I think once you have got used to one then its quite hard to change to another. I'll get him to check it out though. His PC is dual booted with Windows 7, so I might stick it on there.Comment

Originally posted by NickFitz View PostYes, I assumed he must be using Jaws - the price is a bit of a clue I'm aware of people who have successfully made the transition from Jaws to NVDA, and it doesn't cost anything bar a bit of time to try it out, so I thought I'd mention it.Rule Number 1 - Assuming that you have a valid contract in place always try to get your poo onto your timesheet, provided that the timesheet is valid for your current contract and covers the period of time that you are billing for.

The local IT shop sold me a copy of their disk for £5
as long as you have your own Key I guess most places would be happy to give you a copy.

Cherrs for all the comments and especially Netraider who helped by giving me access to an XP ISO image. As luck would have it, one of my XP CD's turned up and I used that in the end. It's going to be copied a million times until my son finds his way onto windows 7. The whole task was made harder by my Action Pack subscription lapsing on the very same weekend and I didn't have a paper copy of the Office key! Although I renewed, the renewal process takes 2 WORKING days to process. Great from a technology company that.
