Question:
For those of us who have a fully paid version of WinEyes, with no restrictions as to the number of computers on which it can be run, will we now have to face the challenge of limitted installations of Jaws? Meaning that we either will have to reduce our number of units, or shovel out a chunk of money on an additional license key - so as to continue to run on our computers, and backup systems after the transmission? More question: Will this list continue to exist, for WinEyes users to continue helping each other out? Same with App Central? Or, will these services be discontinued in the near future?
