Hay, I love y Window-Eyes, and yes it is still working almost flawlessly for me so I say leave it a lone and if you want JAWs purchase it! When Window-Eyes seases to work for me I will consider purchasing JAWS. Until then don't mess with my window-eyes! BTW, if I have to make the change at some point in the future,I will just make it and let it go at that.
