Thanks, only curious that was all. So in theory I could just use my existing

standard licence to authorize Windows 7 Home Premium without incurring 
additional charges.

>> 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 any
>> version 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
>> advanced
>> media 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).
