Hi I am not living in the United States. I shall only receive my CD's of Jaws 8 towards the end of December or somewhere during January. Jaws 8 however is available to be downloaded from the Freedom Scientific website. (Of course I shall not have the benefit of the "real Speak" option which comes as part of Jaws 8 until I actually have that CD). Apart from this, are there any negatives/disadvantages/problems to install Jaws 8 via this download way instead of waiting for my two CD's? Thanks.
