[Rwp] basics

Cool, I'll experiment a bit... my recording machine is offline, 32 bit with 
Win XP so it might not be too portable to newer versions but I'll let ya 
know what happens.

I installed NVDA and had some troubles with NVDA and JAWS playing nice. 
Looks like auto starting either screen reader and/or having them run in the 
system tray isn't a good idea for them to play nice together.  o well - not 
much has changed I guess.  Window Eyes and JAWS used to do similar things - 
not playing nice.  I do recognize the common thread.  *smile*

Best,
David
