Why are the graphics so important?

Also, if possible ask to check for the scores in the demo laptop, as this will give you a idea of how good is the laptop. Tell them to go under performance under control panel and there will be the performance. They should be able to see the score given to each category. The highest score is 5.9 so with that in mind, the lower the score for each the slower the laptop will be. Graphics is the main one I would be looking at, if it's got anything lower the a 4.0 rating I would not touch it unless it's the only one they have that you can affored. Also most laptops do not come with a Hybrid Hard drive. Which helps vista run faster and saves battery power. Mine did not come with this, as I purchased it for newegg for 99 dollars, a 160 gig Samsung with 256 MB flash drive. Any way hope this helps. If need more information let me know.

I am thinking about purchasing a new laptop, but it has Vista on it. What is your take on it working with Jaws. Does it work easily and was it hard to learn? Thank you! Angie
