Hi everyone,
need to ask a question. I was installing Jaws 8.0 onto a desktop at work. This
was my first time installing Jaws at work. Until now, I have been using my
laptop from home. The installation went fine. When it came to authorize Jaws, I
put my authorization disk in and selected the internet option for registration.
A message came up, saying that this application, is not authorized to run on:
XP Pro, Windows 2000 and Nt. I then remembered, that I only have Jaws standard.
Until now, that is all I have needed, as I run Windows XP Home, on my desktop
at home and Windows ME on(my now old) laptop. My local Jaws distributor, says I
can upgrade my Jaws to the Jaws Pro version, for about $270-$370(I have
forgotten the exact price). That is Australian dollars, so don't pass out with
the price all you American users "smile". My question is, what does Jaws Pro
have, that Jaws Standard doesn't? I know I can just keep running Jaws in 40
minute mode on the work computer and just reboot, to get another 40 minutes. Is
there a limit to how many 40 minute demoes you can do? I can get most of my
work needs done by doing that. However, i am thinking that most other work
places will have XP Pro as well. Therefore, I am wondering if it is just as
well upgrading to Jaws Pro. I suppose too, that Windows Vista, will start to
become more widely used over the next few years or so too. Would upgrading to
Jaws Pro now, cover me for Windows Vista too, or is that not known yet? If I do
go with Jaws Pro, is it downwards compatible i.e will I be able to run it on my
home desktop, which is only running Windows XP Home and not Pro?
Sorry for all the questions, but I don't know much about Jaws Pro.
Look forward to hearing from you soon
Jason
