Re: [JAWS-Users] win 7 to xp
My sentiments exactly. That's why I'm hanging onto my XP system beyond the April 8 cutoff for XP support, despite the dire predictions of doom for us inveterate XP loyalists.

Re: [JAWS-Users] win 7 to xp
Thanks, Gerald and Charles. I wonder whether some of the windows 7 apologists are just saying it is ok so as not to ruffle any feathers. I'll keep my old computer with xp and muddle along with win 7, too.

Re: [JAWS-Users] win 7 to xp
Hello Marilyn, Sorry to hear about your PC problems, but IMO going back to XP is not a good move. While XP is a great operating system, still holding just under 30% of the market according to NetMarket Share, getting software drivers is becoming a real task. If you think you're having problems with Win 7 - which to me is unusual - turning back to Win XP will only increase your computer anxiety.
