Yard bird lets make this easy for you.
You have jaws 8. you buy a sma that gives you 2 upgrades 9 and 10 that is
it. It matter not if you do not like nine and wait for ten. You bought
nine and ten and that is what you get. Period. No if ands or buts.

You say consecutive. Okay, so does that mean that if you had an SMA for two
upgrades and decided to skip Version 9, then you could hang in there and get
10 and 11, instead? Rather than 9 and 10? Interesting. I always assumed they
made you apply the SMA to each release, not skipping one or even more until
you decided to use it. Interesting.
If that's the case, what are these guys saying about how they'd be wasting
their SMA's on Version 9 unless some of the glitches in Version 8 aren't
fixed? I'm not understanding that.
Thanks.

I'm afraid it doesn't matter whether you install an upgrade or not. If you
buy an SMA, you're entitled to two consecutive upgrades.

Rick,
I'm not disagreeing with you about being disappointed with Jaws in the way
you express. But I'm not sure what you're saying about the SMA. Now, I may
be wrong, but here's how I thought the SMA arrangement worked. I thought you
buy an SMA to entitle you to the next two full Jaws releases, and if you
choose not to download and install one or both of them, no credit rolls over
so you can wait for a later version to try. In other words, let's say you
have an SMA that is supposed to be good for version 9 and 10. I thought that
if you never install 9, for instance, then all you'll have left on the SMA
will be version 10, and so forth.
Now, if I'm wrong, and buying an SMA entitles the user to any two upgrades,
or something like that, please explain. I'm afraid I'm not expressing the
question quite right, but maybe someone can see what I'm asking. You and one
other person have spoken resentfully about how you feel you'll be wasting
your SMA credit for Version 9 if Jaws 8 is never perfected before 9 is
released. Please understand that I'm not arguing with you. I honestly don't
not what the two of you are saying.
thanks.

Hi Chris,
If FS releases a version 9 before version 8 is fixed I think we have a right
to cry foul here. This problem honestly should have been fixed by now as
the other screen readers don't suffer from the problem, so why should Jaws
and why should we put up with having to use another SMA to get a fix that
should have been fixed by now.

Hi Darrell
Thanks for that, I believe I'll be sticking with my current version, as none
of the fixes apply to any programs I use on a daily
basis. Let us hope that the blank virtual buffer thing is fixed
when 9.0 is released in September, according to the fs
website. Besides, this version i have now works well enough and we all know
that old thing that says, if it ain't broke, don't fix it.
