John,Well, she could go back to DOS and JAWS 3.0. That would run on 1
meg of RAM
and have loads of memory to spare. (LOL) What can I say except "Oops!" I concur, a *GIG* of ram will keep the system running smoothly. Cy, the (very) Ancient Okie...

A nice exchange from two always helpful contributors. John, I
assume you're
suggesting it should be a gb of RAM? I guess it would help to
clarify. All
the other numbers Cy gave are sensible and useful for many JAWS
users.

you.

As a suggestion, go to your computer store and tell them that you
*have* to
have XP Home otherwise your screen reader will not work. Most
dealers can
put an OEM version of XP Home on your machine without any
problem. If this
fails give my dealer, Nanopac a call at (918) 665-0329. I just
got a Del
with XP Home installed. Also, take a look at Wal-Mart, they
usually carry a
Toshiba which has XP Home on it. Remember that you do not need
the most
current, most powerful or largest laptop to do what the vast
majority of us
normally do. Anything which approaches 2 ghz for speed will be
sufficient.
It does, however in my opinion, need a meg of RAM. HTH, Cy, the
Ancient
Okie...

standard. I
