Problem is, when jaws 12 comes out, it may not support XP anymore. That will be a problem for those of us who still use XP, because when changes to Internet Explorer and other programs occur, making them more inaccessible, we won't be able to rely on updates to fix the problem, unless we want to upgrade to Windows 7.

You said it, brother. I just hope that 12, whenever it comes, clears up 11's major problems. It is the first version I've found (and I go back to 1.X) that was a total waste of money.

Sort of like life insurance -- you pay and pay because you don't dare to not pay.

I had no idea that upgrading from my current version of JAWS 9 to JAWS 11 Pro is so expensive. Guess I'll be sticking with JAWS 9 until this computer dies. I have better things to spend $400 on.
