First try Supersite for Windows to learn something about "Vista". Then I suggest that you listen to podcasts about Vista (there are numerous podcasts out there). www.blind-geek-zone.net. Also blind cool tec have some podcasts on Vista, (sorry don’t have a address for this one) Hope this is of some help to you There is also a blind vista mailing list blindvista@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx ________________________________ From: barkingbabs@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To: jaws-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [jaws-uk] Windows Vista question Date: Fri, 21 Mar 2008 08:12:58 -0700 Hi I have been following the recent thread re JAWS 9 and Vista with interest as I want to upgrade my laptop and the ones with XP Pro I can find aren't up to much, guess the newer ones are all Vista? I think it was Susan mentioned the search facility rather than the menu structure and I may have picked this up wrong so just wanted to check. Can you bypass the search box and just the regular start menu to go to the program you want to open? Also, when on the net and going to a new Website, can you simply go to the addressbar with Alt D as you can in XP and type in the address you want? Thanks to anyone who can clarify this for me.
