You could easily run the thumb drive version in demo mode or use a dongle if 
you happen to have such an animal.  If memory serves though only on a 2000 
or XP system.

I just got lost in thought.  It was unfamiliar territory.

Hi,

The thumb drive version of JAWS requires authorization in the form of
either a dongle or ILM.

I think the man said something about going on vacation and wanting to
probably just temporarily install jaws on other peoples' computers so he
can
use them while way from home.  Isn't this something to do with the thumb
drive arrangement, rather than a question of how many computers you can
permanently install Jaws on?

Hi,

You can install JAWS onto as many computers as you like, but you are
only allowed three authorizations and then you have to request a reset
from Freedom Scientific.  Please see
www.fsactivate.com
for more details.

Hello everyone:
I am asking this question in behalf of a friend.  He's going to be going
on
vacation and would like to know he just got jaws 7.0 and would want to
know
in to how many different  computers can he install his jaws and use it
successfully?
I believe he's going to several states to visit relatives.
thanks
Juan
