One thing to note is that, on Windows 7 64-bit, there are two "program
files" folders. One is just "Program Files", and it contains your 64-bit
software. The other is "Program Files (X86)" and it contains your 32-bit
software.

I can't speak for BurnAware, but the others you mention work fine. I was
surprised by how many 32-bit applications that are no longer being updated
continued to work on my 64-bit system. The larger point is that staying with
32-bit systems will eventually hold us back. Brad's point about the increased
memory available on 64-bit systems is crucial. JAWS, to mention just one
application, has grown over the years, requiring more and more RAM to operate
smoothly.

But how well does older software (32 bit) work with 64 bit versions of windows?
Thinking of things like Winamp, GoldWave, BurnAware, ExpressRip, etc.? Thanks.

JAWS 15 will work with 32 and 64 bit versions of Windows 7, no problem.
I would caution you against getting a 32-bit Windows, not because of
JAWS, but because you will be limited in the amount of memory (RAM) that
a 32-bit operating system can use. If you have the option, a 64-bit
Windows version will give you a lot longer life of your computer. In
fact, it's almost impossible to find a Windows 7 32-bit system for just
that reason.
