[JAWS-Users] XP versus Vista
Dear List I am to be supplied with a new PC to assist with my studies. I currently have a Pentium 3.06 with 1 GB Ram running XP Pro and Jaws 8. This is 6 years old and has become very unstable despite a number of attempted software and hardware remedies so I am getting a new machine. I am to be supplied with a 1.8 g dual core processor with2 GB of ram as a replacement. The assessment specifies that Vista be removed and that XP be installed in the belief that Jaws will work better with this setup. I am happy to use XP but do the list agree with this? Will Vista support the dual core processor better for example? I am slightly concerned about the apparent fall in processor speed on what I have already so if Vista supports dual core better this may be an issue. I am not aware of any features in Vista that will be of particular interest to a Jaws user apart from this. Thanks for any feedback.

Thank you for your reply. Yes, navigating to this dialog box is what I've been doing, but I was hoping that there was a shorter way of accomplishing this.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Question about wireless cards, and broad band access cards.
Correct, I realized that after. Sorry for any confusion. There are other standards of course some of which will give you more range but you need to instal an alternative card in the computer and it will not usually have a mode compatible with the more standard WIFY found around public access points. Using public WIFY isn't necessarily transparent, they usually have some sort of access key often posted in the coffee shop and changed at regular intervals or available from the Hotel Reception Desk. You will often find unprotected points though outside of homes and offices or in various apartment buildings which can be used. Very often thy do not have any encryption or other protection. I don't protect my connection here, I suspect one neighbour does use it and I don't mind having often used those of others and been grateful for their availability in the past.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Finding out column width in excel
Annette, I am an engineer and use Excel daily (office 2003 /JFW 8). Excel measures everything in points (printer's points). In JFW 8, pressing insert-f twice quickly will describe the atributes of the active cell to you in a dialogue box. One of the pieces of information provided is the height and width of the cell in points, e.g., cell dimentions are 54 points wide by 12 points heigh. The number of characters you can fit in 54 points depends on the font you have selected. All cells in a column must be the same width. That's why there is no way to individually adjust the width of a cell. It is a quirk of Excel that you can enter a column width in number of characters instead of points I guess this makes it easier for some people. But, for the purposes of laying out a page, the only way you will be able to know if everything fits widthwise is to add up the active column widths in points. For a typical portrait layout with 3/4-in. margins, you have a total width of 432 points to work with. For a landscape layout with the same margins, you have a total of 684 points to work with. Hope this clears things up for you. One final note, in earlier versions of JAWS, you only need to press insert-f once to hear the cell's attributes.

Hi. It sounds like that might be spyware, do you remember where you got it from? This is why I hate anything but what's on my system.

Re: [JAWS-Users] XP versus Vista
Hi David, I'll happy to explain this situation for you: First of all, I'd like to inform that I've done a podcast on this very matter (Dual Core processors) located at Blind Cool Tech website (for more info, check it out). In terms of operating system, I'd say that it depends. I agree that Vista supports dual core (and even quad core) processors better than XP, but XP is as stable as Vista when you have dual core CPU. I personally use a Windows Vista laptop with Core Solo processor (a dual core processor that has one core disabled) with JAWS 8.0.2173. Also, in terms of JAWS, XP might be useful, since FS supports Vista from JAWS 8.0.1163 onwards (earlier versions of JAWS such as 7.0.135 will not work under Vista). So the question is this: if you have JAWS 8.0.2173 or later and if you are forced to use Vista, then that'll be it. If you have JAWS 8.0.423 or earlier, use XP. But since you indicated that you're planning to use XP instead of Vista, then any version of JAWS (specifically JAWS 4.5 or later should support XP) should work. In terms of processor speed, I know what you are talking about, except that it is the other way around. Dual core processors runs much faster than single core counterparts. Let us now imagine a scienario with two computers. Both have XP and both have Intel CPU's. One computer has Intel Pentium 4 at 3.2 GHz and the other has Intel Core II duo at 1.86 GHz. From a casual view, one concludes that Computer a performs much faster than Computer b. No, it is the other way around: Computer b runs faster than Computer a because of the following: Since Dual Core processors have two CPU cores on the unit, it can run twice more processes/programs at once as opposed to single core which can only concentrate on one task. This is useful especially if you run JAWS and other tasks, since one core can deal with jfw.exe while the other core can deal with another process that JAWS is currently on focus such as Microsoft Word, Internet Explorer, and so forth. So you can think of dual core processors as a CPU with two processor cores). Even though the speed seems to be slow at first glance, it is extremely fast, especially for program like JAWS which uses vast amount of processing power. Since this is a mailing list for a specific product, I won't go into my own stats for CPU and so forth (this kind of question is best suited in a list like Blind Computing).

Re: [JAWS-Users] Finding out column width in excel
Thank you very much for that info. I did not know about the Insert+f+f command, nor have I ever been able to correlate points and inches, so the info you provided will prove to be helpful. After reading your message I tried out the Insert+f+f command and found out that when you execute it on a set of merged cells, it still tells you only the points for the single cell, and not for the entire height and width. Have you found this to be the case?. Any ideas how to work around this?

Excel measures everything in points (printer's points). In JFW 8, pressing insert-f twice quickly will describe the atributes of the active cell to you in a dialogue box. One of the pieces of information provided is the height and width of the cell in points, e.g., cell dimentions are 54 points wide by 12 points heigh. The number of characters you can fit in 54 points depends on the font you have selected. All cells in a column must be the same width. That's why there is no way to individually adjust the width of a cell. It is a quirk of Excel that you can enter a column width in number of characters instead of points I guess this makes it easier for some people. But, for the purposes of laying out a page, the only way you will be able to know if everything fits widthwise is to add up the active column widths in points. For a typical portrait layout with 3/4-in. margins, you have a total width of 432 points to work with. For a landscape layout with the same margins, you have a total of 684 points to work with. Hope this clears things up for you. One final note, in earlier versions of JAWS, you only need to press insert-f once to hear the cell's attributes.

Re: [JAWS-Users] JAWS 3.7 problem with sound card
Yeh, I agree. As an example, I can remember having Windows 98, and an older version of JAWS, perhaps 3.7. JAWS worked so well with the media player at the time that it told me what CD I was playing, the artist, the tracks, ETC. You can't get that now, as far as I can tell. XP crashes less, but I sure miss that feature. Ricque wrote: Hi Chris, If the old technology works, use it. Newer doesn't always mean better.

Annette -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Darrin Porter Sent: Tuesday, September 11, 2007 8:50 AM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] Finding out column width in excel Annette, I am an engineer and use Excel daily (office 2003 /JFW 8). Excel measures everything in points (printer's points). In JFW 8, pressing insert-f twice quickly will describe the atributes of the active cell to you in a dialogue box. One of the pieces of information provided is the height and width of the cell in points, e.g., cell dimentions are 54 points wide by 12 points heigh. The number of characters you can fit in 54 points depends on the font you have selected. All cells in a column must be the same width. That's why there is no way to individually adjust the width of a cell. It is a quirk of Excel that you can enter a column width in number of characters instead of points I guess this makes it easier for some people. But, for the purposes of laying out a page, the only way you will be able to know if everything fits widthwise is to add up the active column widths in points. For a typical portrait layout with 3/4-in. margins, you have a total width of 432 points to work with. For a landscape layout with the same margins, you have a total of 684 points to work with. Hope this clears things up for you. One final note, in earlier versions of JAWS, you only need to press insert-f once to hear the cell's attributes.
