After reading comments on this list, I'm planning to stick with Win7 right now, but as the computer may be upgraded to a more current OS later, this looks like an important issue to consider. I'm guessing that Win9 or whatever may be built on some of the same models and that perhaps this issue will be carried forward into subsequent versions of windows.Thanks for the great link Shane, I've forwarded your message to someone who's building the system.

Both work fine. If anything, the video system is going to present more problems, especially if you are going with Windows 8. Make sure whatever laptop you get has wddm 1.2 or later compliant drivers for your video card. Otherwise the Jaws cursor won't work properly in Windows 8.
