I would echo Graham's general caution with respect to VISTA at the moment, although I should add that problems such as they are will resolved as that beta process goes through. I brought a VISTA machine the other week, and my comment after all the kefuffle and argument about hardware spec is that you really want the 2 gig RAM to make things efficient. It is quite a powerful machine but sometimes things do seem to occur at less than a face tearing speed despite power and RAM. Interface accessibility currently with Jaws is not a huge problem as far as the operating system is concerned, but finding your way around as a seasoned XP user does lead to some head scratching. Anyone come at this from first PC perspective may not have this headache. VISTA Home Premium should be the default home user choice and this will come under the Jaws standard license. Regards.
