I agree that Windows 7 is nice when it works. In my case Windows 7 crashes WE 7.11 and GW hasn't been able to provide me with any solution. I have gone back to Vista.

My first tip would be to skip Vista altogether and get Windows 7. I personally feel that Windows 7 will give you the stability of XP and the look and feel of Vista. I think the look and feel of Vista was its only redeeming quality. The way the start menu is now an edit box to allow you to quickly get to things is very nice. As for the defaults with Window-Eyes, you don't really need to change any as the default will work perfectly. Hope this helps. On 3/6/2010 1:12 PM, Donald E.
