The same situation was wit windows 9x right?
I think, that update will be for a free, I don't know, where Microsoft will
take money, but.. For example I bought update about cca 29 USD to win 8..1.
Having licence from University, which I can use for my own purpose.
And notebooks with windows 7 should be bought about 200 USD or cheaper,
here the price is starting about 300 USD with 21 watt in the US the
situation is better, there is not included export taxes to the other
countries. Pity is, that we still not have possibility buy the licence
through paypall, what is working for the US people. I don't want pay more
money for the support, if I never used it.
In this case I am owning 7.2. windoweyes.

Subject: RE: xp support for next version of window-eyes
We have no immediate plans to pull Windows XP support from Window-Eyes, but
we're also not going out of our way to make sure that Window-Eyes will
continue to run under Windows XP. In addition, we do little to no testing
with Windows XP, we will not be addressing bugs that are specific to
Windows XP, and if you contact our support department with questions
specific to XP, you'll probably get a lot of "Uhhhh...."
That being said, Window-Eyes will continue to function under Windows XP for
as long as the development environment we use to create Window-Eyes creates
binaries that will run under Windows XP. Once that stops being the case,
then our support for Windows XP will cease.
While we appreciate the financial burden that upgrading an operating system
can cost, there are (what most would consider) potentially affordable
solutions. Microsoft themselves offers brand new laptops as low as $250
(for example,
http://www.microsoftstore.com/store/msusa/en_US/pdp/productID.288729000/pgm.94341000
). If cost is the deciding factor determining your ability to upgrade,
consider contacting your local League for the Blind or comparable charity
organization to find out what kinds of assistance programs they have or are
aware of.
Thanks,
Aaron
