Hi Buddy,
I think I'll keep Windows 7 as is.

for $200 with proof of purchase of Jaws.

If Windows 7 is not th at accessible to Window-Eyes I'm not going to bother.

I'll work with it as is.

See you in a few weeks in Orlando.

I'll be bringing Braille repeaters with me to convention.

73,

Eric

I'm doing the deal to get Window-Eyes

Windows 7 can be made to look a bit more like XP with Classic Shell. =
Sorry, don't have a URL to hand, and it might be one word, i.e. =
ClasicShell. I had it installed for a while, and it really does look = like
XP. Bad news: it isn't very accessible with Window-Eyes. Works = great with
System Access, no idea about JAWS. But it's free.
