You are riht, I had no idea about software maintainance agreements either so I had to have help financing it. I had to upgrade from version 3.2 to 4.2. ----- Original Message ----- From: <angel238@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

When I got my first version of Jaws, (version 2.0) I was not told by vocational rehabilitation the advantages of upgrading. I discovered this myself. So, the practice of lack of information isn't exclusive to the Veterans Administration. Shouldn't the client absorb some responsibility for discovering these things for himself? ----- Original Message ----- From: "Cy Selfridge" <cyselfridge@xxxxxxxxxxx>

Hi,
I seriously doubt if the VA is dealing in second hand or pirated software. 
From my knowledge the software the VA hands out should also come with
someone to help install it. I have noticed that the VA seems to be handing 
out the JAWS 11 to many vets who have very old versions of JAWS. It would
appear that the VA did not help vets with their older versions by reminding 
them that they (the vets) should keep up their own SMAs.
I have a friend who does tech work for the VA and he delivers and installs 
the new versions of the software supplied by the VA.

Is the VA handing out second-hand or pirated software?  If they obtained
a copy of JAWS 11 from the company or a dealer, it should come complete
with a  license.  This begs the question of where they got a copy of
JAWS 6 in the first place, unless the center had an old copy around
,which was licensed to them.

My neighbor has been blind for eight or ten years.  He went to a V.A.
training center and got his computer and JAWS 6.  Just recently, the

V.A.

gave him JAWS 11.  He asked me to help him install it.  It installed,

but

said something about his authorization being to old.  I can't remember

the

exact statement.  I told him he should call FS tomorrow to see what he



needs
to do.

What happens in a case like this?  Will he or the V.A. have to pay an
additional fee to go from JAWS 6 to 11?
