Frankly Don that makes more sense. Does Windows 7 Premium require the JFW Pro Key? and what versions of Jaws will work with the afore mentioned?

Vista works well now, and much more secure than XP. For me, it's main remaining problem is that it requires too much resources. It seems that Microsoft has learned from their Vista mistakes. Windows is a streamlined version of Vista and needs less memory CPU and hard disk! The only free upgrade from Vista to Windows 7 is if you purchased a computer within the last few months. I have not heard of any other free upgrades, and doubt if they would do that. There was a pre-order upgrade for $50, but that offer is no longer available. These upgrade packages can be applied to either Vista or XP. Windows 7 Premium is the most logical upgrade for most people. There is now a family pack available for about $150 that allows upgrading 3 computers. I hear that there is also a discount student version for around $30. It seems that all that is necessary to qualify for this discount is an email ending with ".edu".
