[Trainer-talk] Netbook specs

[Jess]

Wayne,
By far I believe the most common netbook that blind folks get is the MSI 
Wind. Which by default comes with 1 gig of ram and by default they all are 
running Windows XP Home Edition. I would think that JAWS would run find on 
the netbook with only one gig of ram. I would also think that Microsoft 
Office 2007 will also run fine on the netbook.
