[Nfbf-l] Jaws and Windows10 - Microsoft will be supporting Windows7 for at least ten years

[Alan Dicey]

Dear Friends,
I just got this off another list.
It is good to know, so folks do not feel compelled to jump to Windows 10.
What a relief to know!

I asked blind services here in Florida about Windows 10 and they told me 
there are of course bugs, going to be bugs, things not working right and 
that  they have talked with Microsoft and they were told that Microsoft will 
be  supporting Windows 7 for at least ten years, so not to worry about 
upgrading, since the state just bought new computers for thousands of blind 
in Florida all  Windows 7.  According to the blind service specialist they 
say Jaws won't  even have scripts for Windows 10 for at least three years. 
So the earliest  anyone using Jaws could upgrade shouldn't be until  2018.
this information, was found on MediaReq.

God Bless,
