You mean on the tabs exclusively? Well, Windows RT no - it's a different
codebase, on the ARM architecture. The non-RT tabs run Windows 8 as per
desktop machines, so basically the same as Windows 7. There are of
course considerations around the touch UI when on a capable device. 

But VFP is getting increasingly flaky as new versions of SMB and so on
appear, and I don't really blame M$ in a way from wanting to get away
from having to worry about the archaic multiuser and locking mechanism
it uses. So in 2015 a Windows update might appear that knackers
networked VFP apps, and there won't be anything we can do about it.
Can't support everything for ever.
