Hi Edward, there's a guide to the taskbar (start menu, taskbar buttons, and notification area): http://bit.ly/cJ37BN and a guide to windows explorer: http://bit.ly/9m6XRs David. original message: It has been a long time since I've even thought about learning a new operating system. None of the corporate IS departments with which I've worked dared to touch Vista. So, I'm still on Windows XP, though I understand that will be changing in a couple of weeks. Would someone kindly recommend a useful tutorial on JAWS settings in Windows 7 and possibly also on using Windows 7. I've seen, on iBlink Radio, a couple of references to podcasts, but I'm loathed to waste an hour on something that is not practical and useful. The very early JAWS getting started tapes used to cover the operating system, and the new "basic" manual may do so, but I'm thinking a "JAWS Basic" training isn't what I'm looking for. Thanks in advance. I.
