Hi Cal,

Yes, this is how they send the program CD. The opening dialogues make it 
clear that this is the Jaws installation wizard. Everything is fine.

And I'm pleasantly surprised to be able to report that my own Jaws 10 CD 
arrived in the mail today, first time it's made it without my calling and 
complaining twice or three times in something like three versions. Good 
going, Freedom Scientific! I knew you could do it! Now I'll have to go to 
Jaws Central and see if there are already updates that supersede the build 
on this CD, so I can decide whether to install from the CD or skip that and 
just download a later build that's online with a few bug fixes.

But at least the CD is here at my disposal, should I choose to install from 
it. having the option is nice.

Subject: Got a JAWS 10 SMA disc in the mail today


At least, it's labeled as that on the mailer.  When I put it into my hard 
drive, however, it wanted to install a program.  Is this the actual JAWS 10 
program or some sort of SMA agreement that they want put on your hard drive 
for some reason?  Really wish they'd label it clearly as the JAWS 10 program 
if that's indeed what it is.
