I'm having trouble imagining the practical scenarios for this thumb drive.
I hopefully thought it meant what an earlier poster was hoping, that you
could travel without your own computer and temporarily install Jaws on other
peoples' machines (I imagined something like a limit in terms of days or
hours of usage, not the demo mode). But if the other machine has to have an
authorization on it, wouldn't that imply that it also had *Jaws* on it
already? In which case, of what value would the thumb drive deal be? No, I
haven't yet been to the site to see the explanation there, but I'm skeptical
that a question as basic as mine is addressed. I presume that others know
exactly what the meaning of all this is, but I can't figure out what's being
described. And I don't understand what dongles are for, either. I thought
they were for a similar purpose. To temporarily install jaws on a computer
not your own.
If this is really clearly explained online, someone just please tell me and
I'll be glad to go there later.
Thanks.

According to the thumb drive FAQ, you need at least 128 MB free on the
thumb drive. If the computer onto which you are putting JAWS is not
already authorized to run JAWS, the 40-minute demo will run.
