[Ct-nfb] window 7?

[Elizabeth Rival]

Hi, I just got windows 7 last week. I also was nervous with the switchover
but have found that this computer has some great features and the new ones
will be learned, like the new ribbons. Beth

   Hi, Janet.  MS Office Professional does include Outlook but the format
has still changed.  I bought home and student version for my laptop and it
had a three month trial.  I just started using Windows Live Mail and
although I like the older versions of Outlook, I can work this one and am
learning the finer points as time passes.

I have found this discussion very interesting as I have been trying to
figure out what to get as I need a new computer. I was thinking of getting a
refurbished XP but have decided to go with what is out there now and XP
won't be supported in a few years. I know I'll probably be somewhat unhappy
at first, but as others have said, it takes getting used to and after a
while it will feel more normal. 

 

With regard to e-mail, I believe Office 2010 includes Outlook or Outlook
Express.

I am using windows 7 and JAWS 12.  There is a little learning curve, but I
haven't run into any trouble.

Hello Guys,

 

I am wondering if any of you are using Windows 7?  If so, what are the
advantages for us blind users?  Any of you using WE7.5.1?  I'm just trying
to kill two birds with one stone.

 

Thanks,

Joe
