[gui-talk] info regarding Windows 10 & JAWS

[Curtis Delzer]

Been using windows 10 since July 29, the release date and it's just fine!
it is even better now since the fall update which Microsoft did, 
similar to an sp1 for windows 7, made a big difference in accessability.
Jfw 16 I am using, and believe it or not, Eudora 7.1.0.9 still works 
fine, as my very old email program, PM-Mail 2000 which I have 
installed so I can keep track of my friend's email while his computer is down.
