That is true, as far as PAE implementation goes. However, Microsoft's
license prohibits such expansions, and there are tech discussions that the
use of physical address extensions in 32-bit systems causes driver
instability.

Hi Kathy.
I certainly would not go with 64bit. The amount of complaints we've had
about it! a friend of mine runs a PC repair business and people find it a
lot more convenient to downgrade to 32bit. the reality is that if your pc
only has 4GB or less of memory, 32bit windows is fine. if it has 4GB or
more, then they recommend 64bit but in reality 32bit can work on windows
with up to 16GB of ram using PAE or physical address extention technology.
this probably isn't the place to discuss 32bit verses 64bit, but i've a
feeling that you're paying extra for jaws 64bit, i haven't checked out the
latest prices but i do know that there are separate versions of jaws for
32bit systems and 64bit systems.
I hope that helps, feel free to write me off list if you need more
clarification at:

Good morning,
I am using the latest Jjaws. Different are telling me to go with the 64
bit
laptops, that 32 are fading out. Will the standard jaws work with the 64
bit
laptops. What is the difference between 32 or 64 bit units.
