I'm getting an education for sure.
Which brings me to the next faze, memory.
How much, add more, go with what the laptop has?
My sister just purchased back around end of March, a Acer laptop with this
win/7 for roughly $359. but I don't know much anything else about it, save
it has a full size keyboard, a button to turn/off the mouse function. I is
much lighter in weight too and I think the monitor is bigger, but those
details don't interest me much on monitor size.
I'm focusing on how easy it is to use it, the key layout and all that. It
did come with several USB slots and the cd rom drive if that's what it's
still called these days,lol.
But the keyboard was almost exact to desktop keyboards or what I am use to.

Sorry. I agree it's all technical. Basically, 64 bit operating systems can
use all the RAM (Random Access Memory) your computer offers. So, for
example, if you have 4GB (4000GB or 4096MB), then a 64 bit operating
system can use all of that, rather than 3 to 3.5 on a 32 bit operating
system.

All machines are 64 bit. The question is do you want a 32 bit or a 64
bit operating system? Personally I would stay with 32 bit, unless you
have mission critical applications that require intensive memory and
processing power. Most of us do not, so it's best to stay with 32 bit
for the time being. But also note that 64 bit operating systems is the
future, so you may just want to go 64 bit anyway so that your laptop
is "futureproof". Hope this helps.

post here of some users saying they had 64 bit computers and my
question
is, do I go with a 64 bit or stay with the traditional 32 bit?
I am using Jaws 11.
