Even on bigger laptops like the Dell I have laying around, home, end, page
up and down are missing, or I don't know the fn key layouts to use them, and
if one ever did just a little with Excel, those are kind of important. I
tried using this thing for a work experience I had, but went back to the old
bootcamped Mac Book running XP because JFW won't stay authorized for more
than a couple reboots. Dongles would be a pain with only two USB ports. I
wish I knew what Dell stuck in some of these that JFW's licensing doesn't
like, or is that an issue with any dual or up core CPU?

One thing to keep in mind about laptop/netbook size is the smaller you
go the more messed up the keyboard has to become. I would love a
smaller laptop but for what I do a full sized keyboard is pretty much
a necessity. For instance the laptop I have now does not have a
context menu key which I find really annoying (I remapped the print
screen key to do that but it's still very annoying),. If I use the
touch pad gesture (this laptop does not have traditional mouse button
keys either) for right click it does it where the mouse happens to be,
not where keyboard focus is. I suppose I could do the route jaws to
PC combo first but I suspect I would find that even more annoying than
using the re-mapped print screen.

Hi All,
I currently use a standard PC laptop, running Windows 7 and JAWS 16. I
would like something smaller and lighter than my HP laptop, but still
something that works the same and has the same basic functionality. What
is
the smallest such computer in terms of type? I would want either a
built-in
keyboard, or a machine that would take a plug-in keyboard. I have no
brand
loyalty. What are my options?
