Hello Steve, I don't know where you are shopping, but where ever it is, stop shopping there immediately, you're getting very ripped off. Grins.
Have you actually tried to run Jaws 11 on a windows 7 system with only 2 gigs or RAM? I mean, have you actually physically tried it, or are you going on the basis of supposition and assumption? The fact is, I've used computers running Windows 7 and Jaws 11 with only 2 gigs of RAM, please believe me, unless I was only running those two pieces of software, those being the OS and the screen reader, everything would indeed be fine, but load any other piece of software in addition to that, and things would start to lag dramatically. As for the solid state drives being on 160, you're nuts. One can get a netbook with a 10 inch screen, and a 250 gig solid state drive for 799, and that is running the latest and greatest software. I've seen it, and had a chance to play with it at the store where I saw it, so please, don't assume to speak for the entire population, because you most assuredly are not the entire population of the world, so you couldn't possibly speak for everyone.
