so we all know that certain workplaces (including schools) are verry, and I do mean verry dependent on jaws. Have you guys had to use it too? What was it like? Personally I've pretty much been used to NVDA but I do know some jaws commands. On that note, some braille displays that work with NVDA should also work with jaws, that being the focus40s... That thing lags sometimes when I used jaws, with it, for instance when you try to delete a character it just says a certain letter every time you backspace... I don't know why either. And sometimes it would only switch to contracted braille if you were in a document... because everything outside of that uses computer braille, that being keys like grave accent (`) or whatever it's called...

Ye I've used it before, its OK but its stupid how much it costs.
I assume it costs around 800 for users of home and education? Like 1000 or more for it?

One thing that annoys me with NVDA is it lagging up in busy terminals, the amount of times I've had to force restart NVDA is ridiculous!

Strange, you are describing what JAWS does for me. NVDA always works in Terminals for me, but one thing that JAWS can do that NVDA can't is keeping the cursor in a document on position while scrolling down with your braille display.
yes i agree, i used it in school but now i use NVDA
