Hi,I have just also done this upgrade, and I can tell you that although JAWS does work with Windows 8, the Windows 8 itself is not easy to deal with. I use JAWS 14 but it doesn't cope that well with Windows 8. Windows 8 is quite a steep learning curve and radically different, you will need to take all this into consideration before buying.
