Hi Roy: That's interesting you say that maybe it depends on location. I was looking at new computers today and according to the salesman people are so fed up with vista and the press that it's been getting that I would say a good 90 percent of the computers I was shown still had XP although you had the choice of the store putting on vista instead. Hopefully all the bugs will get resolved then I may upgrade. Til then I may stay with XP home. My Jaws is actually for the XP Pro (I got that in case I upgraded to that.) Anyhow it's all verry interesting.

Actually it would be easier to go with vista now as it is hard (probably impossible) to find a new system with xp on it.

Linux is an operating system that is probably better for the geeks among us. At least that's my opinion. But since there's no version of JAWS that works on anything other than windows it's kind of a moot point.
