JAWS works reasonably well with Windows 7, however you can't access the list of system tray icons, and some things don't work as well. Rumour has it that a free update will be released in March and that will have Windows 7 as one of its new or improved features. For now though the current build of JAWS will suffice. This is 10.0.512.

 Hello all,

I realize that Windows 7 is not officially supported, but I have a question for a friend who's running the public beta.

How the heck do you get to All Programs in the Windows 7 start menu? The only way in which he's able to get to it is to make it a recent item and arrow down from the search box.

Ben
