John, it had 4 Gigs of RAM and a dual core processor. No reason why it
shouldn't have worked in my estimation.
Thx, Albert

Albert:
I'm just curious. When you installed JAWS on the 64 bit machine, just how
much memory was available to you? With JAWS 11, 64 bit machines really need
4 GB RAM. You really are fine with a 32 BIT machine running Windows 7.
Memory is gold in the windows environment. Thank you.
