I mistakenly bought 2013 and found it difficult to use. I got a refund and I
am now in the same position as you. The jury is still out.

Subject: [access-uk] Which software
Hi Lists,
First, apologies for cross posting but I need as many opinions as possible
before making my decisions.
I am looking to have a new computer built in the near future but I need some
views on software to install.
I am currently using Office 2003 and XP Homebut I am not sure whether to
install Office 2010 or 2013 along with Windows 7 or 8.1 on the new machine.
I have shied away from ribbons so far but I have to bow to the inevitable.
Is it too much of a jump from Office 2003 to 2013 or should I try 2010 first?
I keep hearing conflicting reports about Windows 8.1 as to whether its user
friendly for VI users.
I currently use JAWS 13 but have 2 SMA's, 14 and 15 disks available to install.
I have tried NVDA in the past but couldn't get on with its voice because of my
hearing but I understand there many more choices regarding voices.
That's enough for now, thoughts please.
Jim Williams
