Terry P,
Windows 7 will have a little bit of a learning curve. But, if you will be
given training, by all means go for it and be happy. I had to learn Windows
7 by accident meaning I got it and have to figure it out on my own and I'm
doing good after a short time. Jaws 12 may actually make things better.
Windows has instituted something called Virtual Ribbons in Word 2007 and
later. Jaws 12 has a feature that they take all of that and try to make it
more sensible. It seems to help but with just hunt and find, it is
different. Don't worry about the switch. You will be ok and may even like it
better once you get comfortable.
Greg

I am using Jaws 11. I am not very advanced in computer technology but my
big problem is some times in Microsoft Outlook, Jaws will read the body of
another e-mail. I can tell this is happening because it is usually
something I just read or it does not match the senders name. It took me a
while to learn about the refresh comand. I still do not know what causes
this.
My big fear is, they want to move me to Windows 7. If this happens, DORS,
our rehab service will be getting me training.
I have trouble with our web site. I can not page down or the speech gets
faster, so I have to quickly have to arrow through the person of the month,
no affence, to get to the classes.
I mainly use it for word and Outlook.
Terry P.

Are any of you using JAWS 11 or JAWS 12? How do you like it? Do you find
it much different then JAWS 10?
