I have very strong feelings on some issues. One of them happens to be copy
protection. Unless it's absolutely necessary, I will buy no software which
makes it any kind of pain to backup my drive(s). K1000's developers have
been Very responsive to this type of concern and, even when using copy
protection, made an effort not to impede system backups. That's only a
small part of why I use and keep updating the software. The other parts
have to do with a truly impressive effort at tech. support with not only 2
phoneable people, but also the availability of the developers on an active
and closely read email list. Nobody beats them in my experience. The third
reason is the staff's unparalleled responsiveness to the needs/wants of
their users. I cannot think of any meaningful idea they have not
incorporated into the product where possible. They're a remarkable bunch.
That's why I'm a K1000 user and have not missed an update, and I came on
very early in the development of this product. Btw, no one has paid me to
make this endorsement. Hope this helps.

Subject: [bksvol-discuss] About Kurzweil
I have a couple of questions. I hope I'm not starting a debate like the Jaws versus Window Eyes thing because that's not my intent. I have had Openbook since 1991, updating it every few years or so. I have noticed that most of the people I see on here use Kurzweil. I thought I'd see a 50/50 split with Kurzweil and Openbook users. So now I'm wondering what I'm missing. Is there something that draws most of you to use Kurzweil? What prompted you to choose it as your OCR system? Thanks for any thoughts you're willing to share.
