The real scam is having bought the thing in the first place. *kicks
own ass*. Once they've got you it's money, money and more money. I
work for an assistive tech company here in Toronto. I'd like to stem
the tide of all this jaws buying, but it's tough to buck the system
when idiots fill out and sign $15-$25000 worth of papers without even
looking at a singal piece of equipment. I went out to a client's
house three weeks ago and they didn't even know how much their
equipment was worth, and they had litterally $25000 worth stacked up
on a desk in front of them. The ignorence is stultifying and our
system here propogates and thrives on it.
I am very happy I have my window-eyes for the rare thing I want to do
in windows, but I'll take my voice over and foist it on as many people
as I can just to try and thwart the system a bit.

OMG! I know this is OT, but D*MN what a scam this seems like! You
pay to buy, you pay to upgrade, and then pay again to sell?! lol!
This is crazy! -Buying / upgrading are understandable, but who in
their right mind would pay for the privilege of selling something
like this.
anyway, just my thoughts, and thanks for the laugh! lol!
Now, how to possibly make this Mac-related?… uh, let's see, -Glad
VO is free, and not caught up in this kind of racket?!…
Anyway, have a great day!…
Smiles,

I'd love to offload mine too, but if you want to sell it or give it
away you have to pay a transfer fea, and in order to get the
transfer fea you have to upgrade to the latest version. Mine's 3.5
which shows you how long it's been since I used it lol. I think I
even threw out the discs and manuals and just kept the serial
number in case some one ever wanted it.
Actually, I feel kind'a bad selling it to some one even though it
would be current bytime they got it because it's so terrible now
and so expensive. I just hate to do that to some one, lol.
Best,

Does anyone know of anyone who would want an older version of
Jaws? I have Jaws 6.0, and I am trying to get rid of it.
