The short answer is yes, a blind person can use Windows 8 or 8.1. I hear that Windows 9 is supposed to be out soon, so you might want to wait. Windows 8 is like Windows ME and Vista, they all had their problems.

We are going to need to get a new computer; the one that we are now using is on it's last legs. What I want to know is does Windows 8 truly work for a totally blind person? I know from what I have heard that it is different from Windows 7. But can you learned? Can you use it like you would Windows 7? Any feedback Will be greatly appreciated!
