[gui-talk] How to set up a new laptop with Jaws?

[Tammy Cantrell]

Your friend can go to fs and download Jaws 11 on the laptop.  You should 
have 3 keys as we used to call them.  Even if you run out, you can go to the 
link for more fs authorizations.  That part is easy.

Since Jaws is on the desktop, you can look under help and arrow down to 
check for updates.  It will automatically go to fs and download the latest 
files.  Hope that was helpful.
