I don't know about that. I guess it could be true, but I'm running JAWS 8 and XP Home and don't have a lot of the problems some people are mentioning here. I do have some focus issues, but nothing like version 7.10 had, and I do have the occasional glitch otherwise, but besides that, I have a lot better luck with 8 than I did 7.10, and that's running it on the same XP Home operating system.

Although my operating system is XP Pro, if I'm right, the implications are disturbing. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Siobhan" <littlesailorgirl@xxxxxxxxxxx> To: <jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Monday, December 11, 2006 10:26 PM Subject: Re: jaws 8 problem > Hi Jerry.
