If you don't need a screen reader for daily use (e.g. if you aren't
blind), and if you only want to use the program for testing purposes,
then consider using the JAWS trial version. There is no real expiration
date (though I have heard from some people that it eventually expires,
after about a year or so), so you can use it indefinitely. The catch is
that you can only use it for about 40 minutes at a time. After the 40
minutes, you have to reboot the computer in order to make JAWS work
again. It's free this way, and 40 minutes is usually adequate for most
testing purposes.
