Just downloaded jaws 9.0 and wonder how many days a demo program lasts. I thought after a certain number of days the program would quit working so you have to buy the program itself from freedom scientific.

No, it'll stop running after 40 minutes. U can run it for as many days as u want to.

Only dolphin which makes hal and supernova made the mistake of having their screen reader to stop after 30 days. Then the user doesn't have any screen reader at all.
The other companies such as freedom scientific allow the users to run the demo as many times as they like for 40 or 30 minutes. Then the user has to restart and the program works again for another 30 or 40 minutes. So this sounds more fair for people who can't affort to buy the program.
