Windows still has quite a few advantages as a user interface over  
linux espeically for the blind. Windows and jaws is better than Max OS  
and VoiceOver too. Go on the voiceOver email list and even they will  
admit that. Note that I'm sending this from a Mac mini.

Other reasons to want to run Windows would include the possibility  
that you need to use some software that is available only for Windows  
and the possibility that you have to support Windows.

I just got Windows running in a virtual machine via vmware server2.  
But I'll post another message about that.
