Don't think so.  In fact, they have started shipping XP disks with SP3 on
them.  XP gained more life due to it's use in netbooks.

  Thanks Bryan. With the release of w7, microsoft isn't planning to stop
updating xp anytime soon just to force consumers to upgrade, are they?

    I have a swappable hard drive on my DAW, and so have both 32-bit Windows
XP and 64-bit Windows 7 available on separate hard drives.

    About the only major benefit that I've encountered with Windows 7 64-bit
so far is the well-known benefit of more memory available to plugs than on
XP. That's it. Nothing runs faster. 64-bit Sonar will definitely make a
difference in terms of speed, but that isn't available yet. Even the memory
isn't a big help to me at this point. It is rare that I use more than 1.8GB
of memory in my Sonar projects, and XP can handle that just fine.

    If you're starting with a new DAW, then you should go ahead with 64-bit
Windows 7. However, unless you're a power user, or enjoy tinkering with
techy things, I'd suggest that most CT users not bother with upgrading their
current DAWs yet. There just aren't enough advantages for the typical user
to justify the headaches.

    I definitely suggest that anyone with a DAW from Dancing Dots call us to
talk about your options before upgrading to Windows 7.

    sounds like it might still be good to stick with xp for a while then?

    It's not a matter of 64 or 32 bit, jaws11 in general is average with
win7. People have reported driver problems with the video intercept, some of
which i've personally experienced. i've also experienced random crashes on
various machine configurations, both 32 and 64, using jaws11 and win7. This
didn't occur in jaws10, and jaws11 does sem to get stuck in certain areas of
the windows UI sometimes and requires a restart and/or a screen refresh to
work properly. This again is on various machines, not isolated to 1 single
machine. In terms of scripts, jaws11 is better, it actually reads the list
views and the selections, though be it a little buggy sometimes, it does
support the system tray function, the start menu and the new calculator
amongst other things. But the program itself seems a bit buggy to me on
every day use... If you can deal with those minimal issues, you should be
ok. I must say however that the research it feature is very handy to quickly
lookup stuff...

    HTH, D!J!X!

    djx,

    how would you actually rate jaws 11 with windows 7 64-bit? does it work
very well, or just average?

    Yes jaws64 works under win7, jaws10 has somewhat limited  support, while
    jaws11 has better support, though it's kind of buggy... If you were to
use
    jaws under windows 7 I'd recommend jaws11, that goes for 32 or 64
    platforms...

    HTH, D!J!X!

I
    haven't tried it out yet, but I sure will do when I get money for
purchasing
    windows 7.
    I'm running sonar 8.5 on an XP machine, and it's working great.
    Oh, by the way. Welcom to the list, I'm Jörgen Hansson,from sweden as
