What I think would be best for them to do, cell the dongles with the same
price as the ILM and stop the ILM method.
The dongle one is easier in my own opinion.

In my case I haven't had as many activations as FS claims. I only use JAWS
on both of my PCs and no where else. The only times I've had activations has
been when I've restored my PC back and fitted new hardware. Some of the
times I've restored my PC back has been due to issues with JAWS and trying
to resolve them. A more sensible approach from FS would be to have JAWS send
once a day a message to FS giving the IP address of the computer then they
would be able to see that it was being used in the location it was intended
for and wouldn't be an issue. For those who don't want FS to have that
information they can just remain as they are.

We pay a lot of money for the software to say the least. I appreciate FS
want to protect themselves from piracy but I am sure that such a strict
policy on activations is what has caused some to go down the route of piracy
(mine is a fully paid for version and I do not condone piracy in the
slightest).

Why does anyone need more than one or two computers for personal use? The
people who run into problems with their activation counts seem to own a
zillion computers. This is absurd. Any blind computer user who owns more
than two computers deserves to be scrutinized by FS.

Steve, a small objection from one who has requested new activations only
twice in nearly two decades. Agreed, requesting a lot of activations could
indicate usage outside the terms of our agreement with FS. However, it's
clear that many people here need activations for reasons to do with the
number of systems they have, the hardware upgrades they install, the
occasional mistakes they make, and so on. FS has a right to protect its
revenue source, but it does come at a cost to customers of the
unrestricted
use of a program we paid generously for.

Very good as long as you don't ask for an increase in counts on a weekend
and as long as you aren't abusing it by asking for a lot of key recount
increases.

That's what I thought, so my next question is "How liberal is FS
when it comes to getting your activation count re-set if needed?

Subject: Question on activation count

Hi, all.

I'm between computers here, and have a question about Jaws activation
counts.

I know I could call FS about this, but figured I might get a quicker
answer from the list.

Regarding activations, does a single-license Jaws user like myself
have a given number of activations for each separate version of Jaws,
or is the allotted number of 3 activations constant across all
versions of Jaws collectively?

I am getting a couple of new computers set up for both office and
home, and

am trying to figure out how best to proceed, while still keeping an
older Windows XP machine around as a back-up in case that is needed as

well.

I have Jaws 12, but a few earlier versions of Jaws that I could
probably use if neded, if that would give me more activations to work

with.

Thanks!

Tom from Michigan
