Well, it depends again on who you talk to. I've heard the horror stories as well, but I also know that it might be different for yourself, so don't let tht stop you from at least giving it a shot. :) That's what I do, and it's so far served me quite well. Mark

I've been on this list since forever and every time a new version of jaws comes out the horror stories abound! I got jaws 7 right before jaws 8 came out. Granted, I am not the tecky that many of the people on this list are, but getting a new version of jaws is not the plesure it should be.

I just installed version 9, but I can't page down and get to where I would have been when I was using JAWS 7 or 8. Also, the display seems to be different, as the ctrl+downarrow either skips over a lot of what used to be blank lines or there seem to be more blank lines depending on what webpage I'm on. Even so, I'm considering deleting previous versions so that I'll be forced to get used to this new monstrosity. Sorry this really isn't a technical question, just wanting to know others' experiences in upgrading and getting used to differences between versions.-- JFW related links: JFW homepage: http://www.freedomscientific.com/Scripting mailing list: http://lists.the-jdh.com/listinfo.cgi/scriptography-the-jdh.comJFW List instructions: To post a message to the list, send it to jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxxTo unsubscribe from this mailing list, send a message to jfw-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the word unsubscribe in the subject line.Archives located at: //www.freelists.org/archives/jfwIf you have any concerns about the list, post received from the list, or the way the list is being run, do not post them to the list.
