Patrick, think you're being a little hard on HJ.
Yes, I'm quite upset with the 12 release, but JAWS has been a blessen
in my eyes in accessing the Internet and doing work on my PC.
I don't believe HJ would release any product simply to make a buck.
They really try their best to keep up with changes to Windows,
browsers and other en-user applications. Just think they did too much
to JAWS this time around. They will get it together. I thoroughly
believe that in my heart.

Wow, I agree. This is the worst. I think they put out this
build just to get some cash flow - it was put out before its
time. Basically, it is a rip off. They should be ashamed of
themselves for rippping us off. Come on FS! Get it together.

Subject: [JAWS-Users] Sorry, but I need to rant about v12 of JAWS!
Good morning,
I've been a supporter of JAWS since version 2.x. Always have stayed
up-to-date on my SMA. Never have I been totally dismayed with a
major update until version 12.x.
This has got to be the worst release of JAWS I've ever tried.
First graphics it use to read as so, it now recognizes them as
buttons. Quite irritating when you use quick navigation keys to
jump to certain elements of a web page to read it faster.
And it is quite the memory hog! JAWS 12.x crashes so much on my
high-end Windows 7 machine, I've gone back to using 11.x. Think it
has something to do with the Virtual Ribbon or new fangled Config
manager, who knows. Anycase, it is very irritating to be reading a
web page, only to have it go silent for 3 minutes, and then JAWS comes back.
Sorry HJ, but I hate v12 of JAWS and have gone back to using v11.x
perminantly. It's more stable and doesn't crash every 5 minutes.
Wish you allowed us to switch the config manager back to the old
one. Do away with using this new Virtual Ribbon. Give us a choice
to switch them on and off.
If I get booted for expressing my feelings on this list, so be it.
Never done this before, until now.
Feel better getting this off my chest. Thanks for listening.
