I got used to it, and find it less objectionable than the touchpad mouse that my Dell has; if I accidentally let my hands rest on the touchpad, I end up moving the mouse without knowing it, or hitting one of the click buttons and causing something to happen! :( ------------------------------ Chip Orange Database Administrator Florida Public Service Commission Chip.Orange@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx (850) 413-6314 (Any opinions expressed are solely those of the author and do not necessarily reflect those of the Florida Public Service Commission.) ________________________________ From: jfw-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:jfw-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Adrian Spratt Sent: Friday, December 21, 2007 8:10 AM To: jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: new recommended laptop Hi, Allan. What about the joystick device that IBM/Lenovo substitutes for a mouse on its laptops? I find it gets in the way when I try to type "b" and the other keys in that area. ----- Original Message ----- From: Allan Wong hi, IBM Lenovo latest model already come with windows logo key. the minut i'm writing this email, i am using Lenovo3000 series, model Y4000. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -------- Warmest Regards, Allan Wong ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -------- ----- Original Message ----- From: Srinivasu To: jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Friday, December 21, 2007 18:48 Subject: RE: new recommended laptop I would say Lenovo, HP or Dell.

I'm going at least on 2GB ram, hard-disk 120GB or more, duo core 2 CPU. I saw yesterday Acer, and I wish to ask whether someone here is using this ACER Laptop with Vista and Jaws 9? I'm open listening to another suggestions too that may give me the same results. I heard good things on HP laptops, LG, sonny, Lenovo.
