That's right Jack, you got it. Plus, the windows xp start menu is in 2
pains across the screen, whereas the classic start menu from windows
95/98/me is only on the left side of the screen so JAWS can focus on it
better.
That's why FS recomends the use of the classic windows 95/98/me start menu.
Turning off the eye candy will only help JAWS work better.
