MessageNo FS changed the rules for Vista.  If your last SMA isn't at least 9.0 
they make you buy one to run Jaws 8 with Vista.

  Now I am confused, if my upgrade or SMA takes me to version 8.0.2173 and its 
compatible with Vista isn't just a matter of me installing it and my license 
will be accepted??

  It's fine but since 8.0 is your final SMA FS will not allow you to use jaws 8 
and Vista.  You will have to purchase an additional SMA.  This is a new spin FS 
introduced with VIsta.

    If 8.0 is your last SMA your out of luck as you woun't be able to run 8.0 
with Vista.  8.0.2173 is the Version that is Vista compatable.  

    You'll have to purchase an SMA in order to be able to use Vista and Jaws 
there.  you can have anything that says Vista home with your license level.

      Heya List,

      Is Jaws 800.217 fully compatible with Vista? and what version of Vista as 
there's so many around Basic, business etc?. As I'm wanting to buy a laptop or 
notebook and am only licensed for XP Home and this is my last upgrade of Jaws.

      Cheers,

      Jim
