[gui-talk] Latest Jaws update. Worth the bother to downloadand install?

[albert griffith]

Chris, what you say is right on.  There aren't any negative consequences
connected with installing an update and there may be for not doing so.
Every time an update is released people go buggy asking questions about if
they're worth it.  Folks, install service packs and updates for jaws!  Just
so I'm not misunderstood: updates for other programs should be questioned
because the installation may make the program inaccessible or in some other
way cause it to conflict with jaws but this is never true of jaws updates.

Also, try to remember that JAWS updates are like service packs for Windows, 
so they'll just be as important as Windows service packs. If you do not wish

to update then consider the consequences.
