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.
