I've been using 7.0 again since about an hour after installing 7.10. Why? Because it doesn't play nice with programs I either use, or want to use, like Eudora and Firefox. Version 7.0, at least, kept that stability, even if the firefox part of it is still considered limited/experimental.

I'm considering downgrading back to 7.0. I'm checking now to see if FS has gotten back to me, and if the news is unfavorable, I'm afraid I'll have no choice.

now, for me, jaws 7.0 is completely ok and outside of 1 or 2 very minor issues, it's the most stable version of JAWS I've seen. 7.10 however? bleh!!!

Here is an interesting annecdote. My computer had to be retired because I inadvertently caused it's demise. The power went out three times in less than a minute and when it came back on it gave three beeps and wouldn't respond to anything. We tried a new power supply, a new battery and nothing helps.

I ordered a Demention 310 from Dell and I called Freedom Scientific to see what was compatible as I was told that I would be running Windows Media Center. It's using XP Home Edition. When I was talking to the man from FS, his name is Keith, I happened to mention all of the problems I've been hearing about on the lists. He asked if they were list serve lists and he gave me a five minute talk about how many people there are who use Jaws 7 and how there are thousands who have no problem whatsoever. It's just a few who have problems and it's the best upgrade they have done in years. Jaws 8, which will be out this Fall, is going to be even better, according to Keith.
