Well...I am not in a hurry to move on to vista myself either really. I am running XP pro English version and jfw 9 at the mo and even though jfw 9 is a bit slow at boot up, that does not bother me really. I will use XP pro as long as possible and switch over only when there is no choice for me. Here in France very few blind people use vista. The thing is that jaws 8 which is the latest French version of jaws does not work that great with certain aps in vista. I chose to use the English version of XP myself and that way, I can use the latest jfw9 but vista will have to wait a while longer I guess. Take care, Lyn & Twinny. ********* skype=keanemaniac email & MSN= keanemaniac@xxxxxxxxx ********* (...)
