See I am on a new Laptop. They now sell Office 2007 differently now. Which
is new. You can now buy it in parts. Which is better because the one I
bought are the only programs that I use. It comes out a lot cheaper. Why
buy things you don't use?

Yeah. I know that. See the version of Office 2007 that I bought didn't
come with Outlook. It just came with Word, Excel, Power point, and some
Note program. Since I use Windows Mail to check my e-mail I am going to
have to buy Outlook 2007 now. Which is a lot cheaper than me upgrading
my Jaws license, if I bout Windows 7 Ultimate.

Sorry, but Outlook does work natively with Windows 7. At least Outlook
2007 does. Not sure if Outlook 2003 does. Thoughts?

Good looking out Chris. Now I can better weigh out the factors when I
purchase the upgrade. See the thing with me is for me to upgrade my
Jaws license to Professional, I have to pay an additional $300. Right
now, it is not looking like it is worth it. I think I am just going to
buy Outlook since that is the only thing I would use in the virtue
mode.

In theory, yes. To be honest it's really meant for businesses or
professional consumers who wish to migrate from XP to 7 without any
additional hardware or software requirements, apart from the ones
listed. It's also useful for people requiring to use software that
doesn't yet work with 7, but does work with XP. It would also save
time and cost too since the XP you download and use is a legal virtual
machine (Microsoft did design this, after all). To be honest though,
even if we didn't have the facility we could use one of the many free
or paid for virtualization solutions and create our own "xp mode".
It's not the same but it's a compromize.

OK. So does that mean that one is allowed to use Outlook Express
from Virtue Mode. Considering that Windows 7 doesn't?

It allows you to run programs that can't run under Windows 7
natively. What happens is that you download two components, Windows
Virtual PC and a virtual machine running XP SP3. What happens next
is that you start this virtual machine, then, on your Windows 7
start menu you'll see applications that come with XP, such as IE6,
Outlook Express, etc. What then happens is that the application
runs, silently, inside this virtual machine, but actually appears
and functions on your Windows 7 desktop. Once you've closed the
application, the virtual machine also closes. At least that's how I
interpret this anyway. The feature is called XP mode. You can only
use this, however, on higher versions of Windows, and your PC must
support either Intel virtualization or the equivalent for AMD
processors. Hope this helps.

I was just reading something on the Internet. They said that
Windows 7 Home Premium is not going to come with that XP Virtue
feature. My question is, " What is that feature really used for
anyway?".
