For screen resolution 1024 x 768 screen resolution with 32 bit color is recommended. JAWS 7 is good uner xp. Although that is still really old. I would recomend JAWS 9 if possible. If you can go with JAWS 9 staying with vista is best. If you must stay with anything less than JAWS 9 then Vista is not an option. JAWS 8 did work with vista but there were performance issues if I remember correctly.

What is the optimum for JFW? I currently have V7 authorisation but am using V6. Oh, and it's a business machine so I have the option to downgrade to XP, which I shall do for the present until Vista settles down! Also, is it worth going to V7. My SMA ran out at 7 and I haven't gotten round to updating from 6 to 7 as, at the time, V7 seemed to be less than warmly received by list users...
