Re: [libreoffice-users] has anyone tried LO on Windows 8?

Hi :)
Someone from the Accessibility List has been using it but it takes a lot to set it up for 
screen-readers and the person's other normal Windows tweaks are taking a lot of effort this time.


I didn't ask how great the general move to touch-screen functionality is, for non-fully-sighted 
users!
Regards from
Tom :)
