its not the hardware thats the issue.
I am slowly doing that as a futureproffing.
the hardware upgrade depending on the pc you have should take no more than 2-4
grand.
Depending on what you have with scanners you may need to spend like 300 or so
on one, maybe your printer though it should still work, not sure about anything
else but most stuff with hardware is relitavely cheap.
Jaws, windoweyes and hal don't come cheap so depending on which reader or combo
of readers you have its that which I am not in a hurry to upgrade.
Hardware wise I have al most everything I need, the scanner I hardly use for
now, everything else should be upgraded within the next 2 months, most of it
was last year.
If all the at was not so much cash, then I'd happily change oses.
I however am not willing to upgrade from something that works well until I need
to.
Its another thing with software.
