again have you reported your problems to FS?  Whether not 8 is better than 7 
or 7 is better than 8 is irrelivant.  I have pretty good results with both 7 
and 8 here on my machines and don't have a lot of the problems reported but 
have some problems that no one has said anything about.  So I send those 
problems to FS so they know about them and hopefully will be able to fix 
them.  Too many people complain on the list that jaws sucks but never ssend 
any reports to FS at all.

Hi Alicia,
I have mixed feelings about 8.0: I agree that it was the one of
the worst releases, it does not surpass JAWS 7.1, which was far
worse than JAWS 8.0 (in fact, I consider JAWS 7.1 to be a
complete disaster and most worst JAWS release ever).  8.0 is
somewhat mediocore release like 4.5.  The best release that I can
think of is JAWS 5.0 and 6.0.  JAWS 7.0 is considered one of the
beneficial relases - as well as one of the best releases besides
JAWS 6.x.
Cheers,
Joseph
