Hi all, here a late addition on this topic: The problem of the Jaws licence is not Mac or Fusion specific. I think it is a general problem of virtualisation software and Jaws hardware detection. I also have had this issue with a Linux host system, Windows XP, Virtual Box and Jaws at work. We could neighter change the virtual hardware nor make an update to a newer VBox version which wasn't a bug fix release. In all cases Jaws wanted a new licence. The only work around at the moment is to use a licence dongle. In my opinion this issue is a greater mess than the registration of Windows XP where you have the possibility of having installations on three different hardware compositions before you need a new registration key.
