The reason System Access is cheaper than JAWS is because it is not as 
comprehensive and does not work with as many different applications.  You get 
what you pay for.

  I really dislike the expense that freedom Scientif has on Jaws.  It seems 
like other companies I hate to say are a lot cheaper.  When I first purchased 
jaws it was about 800 or so dollars where as System access is a lot cheaper.

    Hello all,

    I am sorry to be such a stick in the mud but this idea of JAWS Home and 
JAWS Pro is absolutely asinine.

    FS already extracts sufficient funds from us to cover both.

    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).

    Cheers,

    Joseph

    Hi listers,

         I am using Jaws for windows on my machine at home using XP home 
addition.  How much would it cost to upgrade so that it can run on XP pro?  Why 
can't jaws work on XP pro when having jaws for windows on my machine that has 
XP home?
