Subject: [office-accessibility] What Software/Versions On A New Computer?

?

Hi All,

?

I have begun looking at new computers since my current Windows computer is over 7 years old. I will be using Jaws so I¡¯m wondering about what software will work best with Jaws on a new Windows 10 system.

?

So for starters, I am a MS Word user and am not sure if I need to be aware of any issues with the latest version of Word. I¡¯m also not thrilled with what I understand in newer versions of Word of my personal documents being stored in the cloud. I want to keep my documents on my computer only. What should I buy so far as Word goes?

?

Second I am not sure what the best email program for a jaws user is these days. I¡¯m still using Windows Live Mail on my current system and know its no longer supported. What is the best program for all the basics of adding, deleting, & editing contacts, sending & saving attachments, and of course writing, editing and sending emails?

?

I¡¯m sure I¡¯ll think of other questions as I continue looking at computer options.

?

Thanks in advance for your input.

Eileen
