Being someone who works for Dell, I can safely say I've personally seen no more or less, better or worse issues with Vista on laptops versus desktops. Yeah there's the occasional stability issue, but once Microsoft decides on a release date for service pack 1, that *should* be corrected. JAWS also, since version 9.0, is supposed to work a lot better with Vista than previously, though I've never tried it on my own to be sure.

I need to purchase a new computer today and know it will be a Dell laptop but not sure which one. Is anyone out there using Jaws with a laptop running Vista? I'm still hearing that Vista is not very stable with laptops and wonder if this is still an issue. If you have a Dell laptop, which one do you have? Does anyone have a XPS laptop or a Lattitude? Your input is greatly appreciated.
