I gather that you could just buy a dongle and use it on as many computers as
you have JAWS installed. FS won't know about it since the licence is all
embedded into the device. All FS knows is that you've purchased the dongle
and thus you have the right to use it.

It's all as clear as mud to me.
I have JAWS10 Pro. Does this mean that I can buy a dongle for it and use
it temporarily on other computers besides the one JAWS is already on?
Or, as I thought previously, there are JAWS versions that only work with
dongles.

Dongle Authorization
A dongle is a hardware device that you can connect to a computer's
parallel or USB port (depending on the type of dongle). JAWS is
authorized to run on that computer as long as the dongle remains
connected. This is useful if you frequently need to use JAWS on many
different computers and do not want to activate the program on each of
them.
When JAWS starts, it first determines whether a dongle is connected to
the computer. If one is connected, JAWS uses the features and information
for the license associated with the dongle to authorize JAWS. If no
dongle is connected, JAWS searches for the license information stored on
the computer. You can use the Dongle Viewer utility to view information
on the license associated with the dongle currently connected to your
computer. To start this utility, go to the JAWS program group, open the
Tools submenu, and choose Dongle Viewer.
Note: It is recommended that you do not connect the dongle to your
computer until after you install JAWS. If the dongle was connected before
or during installation, you must restart your computer to receive proper
authorization.
Dongles are sold separately or as an additional JAWS feature. Contact
Freedom Scientific Sales if you want to purchase one.
Note: Certain international versions of JAWS require a dongle for
authorization. Using one of these versions without a dongle displays an
error message.

Subject: [Blind-Computing] JAWS Dongle
I just received my JAWS Dongle from FS today and wondered if someone
could
tell me exactly how it works or point me to some documentation on-line
to
read.
I purchased the usb version.
Thanks.
