Jörgen , What you suggest is true, but with Windows 7 just around the corner, Iwouldn't want to be learning the nuances of two new operating systems in thespace of months or even a year. I find it interesting that her company wants to install a new operating system that is already discontinued and will soon have no driver or update support.

I find Vista perfectly accessible and do not really understand why peoplethink so negatively about it. But of course there is always a time when you have to get used to the new things but I do not think that you should be tooworried about the change. ------------------------ Doctor of theology Jörgen Magnusson Mid Sweden University Department of humanities Lecturer in religious studies Email: jorgen.magnusson@xxxxxxx Office phone: +46 (0)611 862 93 Celular phone: +46 (0)708 23 52 42 Homepage: www.jorgenmagnusson.com Address: Institutionen för humaniora Postal code: SE-871 88 City: Härnösand Sweden -------------------------------------------------- From: "Brandon Keith" <brandonboy13@xxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Saturday, October 16, 2010 7:36 AM To: <jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: Re: Vista: To switch or not to switch?Hello,I used Jaws 9 and now I'm using Jaws 11 with Vista.

I don't know why, I just didn't got the hang of it. There's a lot of elements that just don't work well. However, I am talking vista with jaws 9. I don't know how improved jaws became with versions 10, 11 and 12. I only used jaws 9 with vista on my tranning classes. They told me that my computer was going to be vista. I fought with tooth and nail so that rehab gave me my computer with win XP. Now I upgraded to win 7 and I am loving it. -------------------------------------------------- From: "Barbara Anne Bolin" <barbaraanne1@xxxxxxx> Sent: Friday, October 15, 2010 10:37 PM To: <jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: Vista: To switch or not to switch?Hello Everyone, My employer is "making" me go to VISTA from XP. Windows 7 has not been approved for use in our office. (Don't get me started on explaining why not!) Can anyone provide some valid reasons to use VISTA or to not use VISTA?I am currently on JAWS 10 and have no more SMA left, so there may be theneed to purchase a newer version.Is it known if Freedom Scientific is going to continue to support Vista?I plan to call and get their input Monday. I just learned about this switch before I left work, so I didn't get time to call them this evening. I am a computer programmer. I use 3270 terminal emulation with Reflections 11 as the emulator. They will be setting me up with VPN for Remote Access.I need to access a lot of WORD, a bit of EXCEL, Outlook and the Internetfor my job. Thanks for any support and feedback you can provide.
