Hi Chi!!

You may want to consider upgrading your CPU to a duel core processor.
Duel core processors are 
chips that have 2 processors on one chip.  For example, if you had a
duel core 3 gig then, in actual 
fact, you would have 6 gig of processing power.

Regarding the 64 bit version of Windows, Jaws or, CT don't work on it at
all.  I am not sure if Jaws 
will ever be coded for the 64 bit version of Windows Xp.  They may get
around to coding it for vista 
though.
