that may be so, George: But GW Micro etc. charge the same price for the Window-eyes version (the main competitive screen reader) that works with both XP home and Pro; and nothing extra either for Remote Assistance. True, they increased the price (though by not as much as FS etc. are charging) to take account of XP pro. They didn't have NT support either. Haven't heard complaints about Window-Eyes not working on Windows XP Pro or with Remote Assistance. ----- Original Message ----- From: "George Bell" <george@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <jaws-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Saturday, September 03, 2005 4:28 PM Subject: [jaws-uk] Re: Jaws authorization! Actually it is approximately 20% more expensive to buy the Professional, as opposed to the Standard. An upgrade however is £270, which is equivalent to 40% of the Standard price of £655. At one time, I did feel the difference was rather excessive, but after 4 or 5 years of providing technical support, I can assure you that the level of knowledge and expertise required to support Windows XP Professional more than justifies it. The bottom line is that if you do not require Fort Knox type security, stick with XP Home. The exception to this are unfortunately students who wish to access school, university and college networks. The vast majority of admins will not allow the use of XP Home in such cases.
