<smiling> Yeah, it's a ripoff all right. So you can see why I'm not
upgrading. I missed Jaws 8 and 9, so they wanted me to pay $550 to get
v10!! And they also wanted to sell me the SMA, which was an additional
$200!!!!!

Hi all,
$550.00, for Jaws? You mean Shylock is going to charge you $550.00 to
upgrade! <grrrrr> Well, make sure that you wrap that pound of flesh in
the prettiest paper and with a silk ribbon. Those....!!!
No, System Access is made by Serotek corporation. They only support
two types of Braille displays. One is the Brailliant and I don't know
what the other is. It's a good program, and once you buy the screen
reader, they won't charge you for upgrades. You do pay $129.00 per
year for the network, but you won't have to pay for upgrades again.
That is at least one nice thing Serotek did.
Oooo, that Shylock. $550.00 to upgrade! They should be shot! Making
people pay for the intervening upgrades at $250.00 a crack is the
height of usury, I'm thinking. But I'm just a consumer.
