Hi Kim, You have a few email client options to consider. The four most popular are Outlook, Windows Live Mail, Thunderbird and Becky. From a Window-Eyes perspective, Outlook probably has the most robust support and feature set. I hope that list members who use the other email clients can share their experiences. Regarding whether or not you should upgrade, that is a very personal choice. In most cases, keeping your screen reader up to date will give you the most accurate and stable experience, but there are always exceptions to this rule. Why not download and install the 60-day trial of Window-Eyes 9.4 (current version) to see if it meets your needs? This will allow you to decide for yourself which version provides the better experience on your new computer. In terms of cost, the 8.4 to 9.0 upgrade is $175. To get to version 9.4, you have two options. Invest in an SMA for $199 (you get 9.4 plus two future upgrades) or pay $49 for the 9.0 to 9.2 upgrade. From 9.2, you can download a nd install the free 9.4 update. Best, Marc

With all the things I read daily on this list, I'm thinking I should wait a while longer to switch to Windows 10. My question is this. Actually, two questions. What email client works well with Windows 7? I understand that Outlook Express which I've been using with XP which I currently have is now gone. The other question is should I keep Window-Eyes Version 8.4, or should I upgrade to the latest version, and how much would that cost? thanks for your advice.
