Ok Carl, thanks for that. I just thought that FS would help me and other
customers running demo versions of their software, but guess not.

You guys certainly have a right to your opinion  but I don't see how you can
expect a company to offer tech support to someone who has no current
license.  If you call any company for tech support the first thing they ask
you, that is after your credit card number, is if you are running the latest
version of their software.  If not you're generally told to install it and
call in the morning.

Hmm. Agree with you in everything, accept the MAC thing. I'll never use a
MAC as my main computer in my life, yeah they're good, but I mean come on,
they're not everything that people claim they are. For an example Brandon,
if Edward Alonzo thinks Macs are so good, why does he still use his Windows
machine for everything?

||| Hi all, here's a response I got off Freedom Scientific Technical 
||| Support regarding the problems I discussed in the latest JAWS 
||| update. It seems a bit strange, as I thought I was told that I could 
||| contact Technical Support, even though I don't own a JAWS licence? 
||| Could someone kindly correct me on this policy, and I'm slightly 
||| embarrassed  and ashamed and could do with some reassurance. I had 
||| to reply to him and state that I was running it as a demo and 
||| therefore I very much doubt they could help me further.
||| Thanks, and
||| now here's the message.

|||
||| Hi Christopher,
||| Thank you for your e-mail.  I have looked you up in our records, and 
||| show you with JAWS version 3.7.  If possible, I would appreciate it 
||| if you could provide me with your JAWS 9.0 serial number.  In 
||| addition, please provide me with your phone number, and the best 
||| time to call, so the product manager Eric Damery and myself can call 
||| and address your concerns.
||| If we could call
||| Monday morning, that would be ideal for us.  I would also need to 
||| know where you are located for calling purposes.

|||
|||
|||
||| Dear Sir/madam,
|||
||| I've just installed the latest build of JAWS 9, JAWS 9.0.2152, 
||| running on
|||
||| an HP Compaq Presario C700 Notebook PC with Windows Vista Home 
||| Premium. I
|||
||| wish to report two problems with this latest build, which were not
|||
||| introduced with previous builds of JAWS 9, including the recent 
||| build
|||
||| (9.0.552).
|||
||| 1. Eloquence Software synthesizer: When I type, it sounds as if it 
||| has
|||
||| some type of chorus affect. I can't really describe the effect, but 
||| it's
|||
||| strange anyhow. It doesn't happen as much when I'm reading 
||| something.
|||
||| 2. When I compose an HTML message using Outlook 2003, JAWS "grinds 
||| to a
|||
||| halt" for a few seconds then starts talking again. This happens when 
||| I
|||
||| type really fast. When I compose in plain text however, it's not as
|||
||| sluggish, see below.
|||
||| 3. When I type in general, there appears to be a slight lag from 
||| when I
|||
||| press a character on the keyboard to when JAWS announces what I've
|||
||| entered.
|||
||| Please note that these problems did not exist with all previous 
||| builds of
|||
||| JAWS 9, including the recent build (9.0.552).
|||
||| Thanks in advance for taking these problems into consideration, and 
||| I look
|||
||| forward to hearing from you.
|||
||| Yours Sincerely,
|||
||| Christopher Hallsworth
