Joseph and all, how do we exactly know that JAWS standard will work for Windows 7 Home Basic and Premium? Have this ever been tested on beta/RC releases? Or has Freedom Scientific confirmed it somewhere? Just curious that's all.

Hi Laura, The question of running JAWS under "Home" or "Pro" depends on the JAWS license you have. If it is Standard license, you cannot use JAWS under Pro versions of Windows. If using Pro license, then you can use JAWS on anyversion of Windows after 2000. The supported OS based on JAWS licenses are:JAWS Standard: Windows XP Home, Windows Vista Home Basic, Home Premium, Windows 7 Home Basic, Home Premium. JAWS Professional: Windows 2000 Pro and server editions, Windows XP Home, Professional, Tablet PC*1, Media Center*2, Windows Server 2003, Windows Vista Home Basic, Home Premium, Business, Enterprise, Ultimate, Windows Server 2008, Windows 7 Home Basic, Home Premium, Professional, Enterprise and Ultimate. *1. A tablet PC is a special laptop that allows users to interact with the operating system with pen and touch screen input. A special XP version, called Windows XP Tablet PC Edition exists to deal with this type of laptops. This is essentially XP Pro base with tablet functionality, thus requiring JAWS Pro to run.*2. Media Center Edition is another version of XP that is used with advancedmedia devices, such as TV tuner cards, advanced video recording and so forth. Just like Tablet PC Edition, it is essentially XP Pro with Media Center application, thus you need JAWS Pro. As for Windows 7, users confirmed compatibility with JAWS for Windows (at least version 10).
