It's similar in many ways, but some apps have that ribbon that office has, the start menu is now a start screen that is layed out in tiles that screenreaders love so very much, there exist these things called charms for getting to settings and stuff, the shut down menu is hidden with the result that it took me 30 minutes the first time to figure out where the bloody thing was (I could've shut it down using other ways but I wanted to find the menu) and lots of admin tools are even more hidden. Oh, and it supports touch screens pretty well if you have JAWS 15 or NVDA. Oh, and Narrator is vastly improved to the point where I'd put it on par with VoiceOver ... maybe a tad bit below. But I am able to get by with it as a primary screenreader now, although I don't generally do so
