Hello,
The technical difference between home and pro is the pro can log into
other computers while the home one can accept remote access but it
cannot establish it. This is something you would need if you were a
blind engineer, for example. I use Jaws Home.
Very best wishes,
Sandra.

Hi Cliff I'd say "all wrong" is putting it pretty mildly. I believe
we have laws concerned with this kind of financial extraction from
captive customers, but to my knowledge nobody has ever gone down that
road to establish whether the behaviour of access tech providers is
in fact legal, let alone ethical.

I think that's all wrong. I bought jaws 4 in 2001 when I was running
my computer business and had my eyes removed so had to have jaws to
carry on. Regardless of whether you are running a business or trying
to use a computer at home, you only need jaws if you are blind and if
you are trying to earn a living why should you be penalised by
paying another £300 to buy it and pay even more for updates. Pah. The
difference between updateing my pro version now or updating down to
home version is £210 but according to sight and sound the only
difference is whether I am working or just living.

Hi Cliff I asked Sight And Sound the same question just yesterday,
and got the same answer. Their line is that the home version is
cheaper to do a favour to home users. I suggest the Pro version is
more expensive because it is mostly bought via Access To Work and
they can therefore get away with it.

Has anyone used jaws pro and jaws home, and is there any
difference? The reason I ask is that sight and sound say there is
no difference in the program, only the price to a home user or a
business user. regards cliff ** To leave the list, click on the
