Crystal: The only thing I can think of that would affect your ability to run Jaws is the video card. In the past when I have talked to Freedom Scientific, I had been told that the NVIDIA Jeforce IV would not work with JFW. Users who tried to install Jaws on a computer with that particular video card would get video intercept errors. Personally, I would recommend the Gateway 450x. It ahs an ATI video card, which I have successfully gotten to work with Jaws. In addition, I like the arrangement of the keyboard. I have also heard good things about Dell computers including the Inspiron 1100. The advantage of the gateway is that it has a longer battery life. Does anyone else have any comments. Thanks.

Hi, I will be shopping for a new notebook this week, and plan to take my Jaws 6 cd along. I would like to try Jaws on any model that I may be interested in purchasing. I am totally unfamiliar with XP home edition. Is there anything that might be readily apparent that would let me know that Jaws might not run well on a particular machine? Thanks.
