Well, I just feel like i've been shot down. Just called the good help desk at Vision Australia, and was told that Miob isn't accessable with jaws at all. :( Should have told him about that guy who obviously just fobbed me off yesterday by trying to tell me the later versions were, or maybe they are and Nick didn't know about them. At any rate, Nick said the only accounting program that is accessable is cash management, so guess will mention that, as well as being told that the later version of Miob is. On a more positive note though, while I was talking to Proo last night, she just casually asked me if I was thinking of taking my netbook? I said that I was thinking of taking a demo version of jaws on a CD and then I could demonstrate it if the interviewers agreed to it. Might still do that, but the netbook is a brilliant idea because obviously Jaws is already on there. only disadvantage to relying on that is the keys are too small so I'd usually use a USB keyboard but that's huge. I need a smaller bluetooth one methinks; christmas is coming hey!
Ah well, I can only do my best and I'll be as confident as I can be; that's definitely my aim.

Job interview went surprisingly well. Yes I was a tad nervous before hand, but I was fine during the interview. I felt very confident and I just told it like it was. I detailed my work at the ANZ and my volunteer roles. They seemed very impressed with jaws. i did tell them about the miob business but they were understanding. they sounded like they'd still be open to, perhaps even a compromise. I'd told them how litterate I am with the windows environment and MS applications in general. -- But, at the end of the day (literally) it will be up to the big boss. So though he may not be even willing to try Jaws out for size, at least, as I said before, it was an experience, a great positive one at that.
As I said to afet before, there's totally nothing to be scared of.
If I don't get this job .. Bring on more interviews is what i say! -- this will be ideal though; 20 hours a week.
Oh yes, and they loved Miss Joy, of course. :)
