Hi, I use a laptop for work that I've had since 2007. I think it has Office 2003 installed on it. I'd like to learn Windows Vista. I'm sure my laptop is a 64 ram. Does anyone know if I might be able to just buy the program, without having to replace my laptop? Also, is there significant differences between Jaws for Windows XP and Vista? I just realized as I was typing this post that I'd need to update from Jaws Xp to Vista. Any ideas would be apreciated.
thanks.

Hmmm! Just make sure it has a decent internal hard drive, over 2.5 GHZ for Vista to be able to run properly without slowing the system down due to lack of both space and RAM.

That and atleast 2GB of Ram but to be honest you are better off waiting another month or so and getting windows 7 instead of vista .. its laid out very similiar to vista but will run much better and faster than vista will.
