I use OO on a couple of windows 8 machines (one clean install, one upgrade from Win 7). I've experienced no problems.
Touch is a problem, as you would imagine it is for most apps designed for Win7. One of the things MS applcations do is provide a "touch" mode. This simply puts larger margins around the main interface widgets (all of a sudden the larger space in the ribbon make sense). Far from perfect but quite effective. When doing the UI for 4.0 it might be good to add such a feature. Sent from my tablet On Dec 14, 2012 4:37 AM, "Dennis E.
