I'm using Windows 7 and Office 2010. Also Jaws 12. No real issues, though I
know it will take FS some time to put out the help resources for these
updates. Wish that could go faster. I did listen to a couple of podcasts at
Blind Cool Tech. I would not call them a waste of time, although I would say
that some of the material was pretty basic if you have a good sense of what
you are doing already. But they did point out differences between XP and
Vista and 7. There are a lot more places you can get stuck tabbing around
in the Explorer windows unless you have some idea of what is there.
I'm having no serious trouble with 2010 either, although it does help that I
have some vision and can use some magnification if I get stuck.

?You shouldn't waste your time with podcasts. They don't cover nearly as
much information as a written counterpart. However, listen to the "getting
started" daisy books from freedomscientific. They use vista, but it is
almost the same. Don't worry! Is the same in interface. It ends there. 7 is
a whole nother monster than vista... a more taimed and dossile monster than
vista ever was. I don't regret switching from XP to 7.
