Hi, If you are on Powerbraille then I believe you need to be on the 32-bit edition of Windows 7 as in 64-bit version of Jaws the drivers are limited. O2k3 will work with Windows 7 I believe if all updates are applied. It is better to apply the updates before running any of the apps - i.e, do a Windows Update after installing Office. Without the Powerbraille requirement I would have said go 64-bit, no brainer. A lot of manufacturers are now putting 64-bit on their kit, so if you are buying new then be careful. If you are upgrading the current kit then make sure it meets the minimum requirements and drivers etc are compatible.

I don't know whether to upgrade to the 32 or 64 bit version. In addition to the industry software I would prefer to use office 2003. Further, which modern 40 and 80 cell displays would anyone recommend - I currently use the PowerBraille series with which I am very happy.
