Hi,
I tried looking around Google and YouTube for a video that shows how JAWS
is used. I found a few, but they weren't quite what I had in mind.
I often have people asking me to demo JAWS for them because they have no
idea how screen reading software works. I'm eager to do it, but I don't
always have time and sometimes they are far away. Like Minnesota. (smile)
Please let me know if any of you have come across a good video where
someone demonstrates how JAWS works to an audience unfamiliar with screen
reading software.
Thanks!
David

Not a direct answer, but for people who want to see how readers work in
general, as opposed to JAWS specifically, NVDA is free, easy to install,
and they also have some demo diveos, thought I haven't checked them out
much.

David, I've always thought Neal Ewers' video does a great job: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bkRD6J0UhWY
