Chris,
What mistakes did you make with regards the way you used your single user
license? One of the really irritating things I find with JAWS ILM licensing
is when you're testing applications in a VM and need to change the
configuration, i.e. memory, number of CPU's, etc. There are ways around it
like getting a 1 seat network license or a dongle though. Just curious
that's all.
Cheers.
AB

After my SMA expires or before then I will upgrade to JAWS Professional,
have one or both features enabled, change my ILM license to a dongle, and
that's it; I can leave FS alone. I probably won't renew my SMA either. I
know I made mistakes in how I handled my single user license, but all they
will do for me now is give me one key, not three but one, upon request, at
least every sixty days. If they have made the single user license terms
clearer then all this would have not happened. Off my soapbox.
