Just to clarify, there is *NO* difference between the home and pro versions 
of Jaws.  The difference lies solely in the authorization key.

For home users, there generally isn't a big need to use  a higher version of 
Windows 7 than Home Premium.  Obviously, businesses are a different animal; 
and there are some power users who prefer Windows 7 Pro as opposed to Home.
