Hi there,
It depends on what you want to do with this new computer. The
following is just my general recommendations:
* I recommend that you get at least a desktop with the following:
* CPU: at least Intel Core II Duo at 1.66 GHz.
* Memory, at least 512 MB RAM (1 GB is recommended).
* Hard drive: at least 80 GB hard drive (120 GB is recommended).
* You can use either XP or Vista. For XP, I recommend XP Pro.
For Vista, I recommend Vista Business.
For laptops, I recommend that you get a mid-range laptop (between
$600 to $800) made from Toshiba, Sony, HP and others.
Since you have JAWS 5.1, a best choice for you might be the
following:
* CPU: Intel Core II Duo
* Windows XP Professional (JAWS 8.0.1163 and higher should be
used with Vista)
* 80 GB hard drive
* 512 MB of RAM.
Cheers,
Joseph

Subject: new computer help
Hi. I am in need for a new computer quite soon because I am
running
an old one and running out of space.
I am wondering what people recommend to get these days.
I cannot afford to upgrade JAWS as well and am running 5.1.
Is vista okay?
What type of memory should I consider?
How big of a hard drive?
Any other thoughts?
Thanks so much.
Lovette
