By the way, I love Windows 8, especially the syncing which actually seems to work as advertised.
Windows 8 isn't perfect, but it is definitely an improvement. OK, I've made a few changes following the suggestions which actually came from the MS Help as well as some of the comments that I referenced above.
Specifically, here is what I've done:. I honestly can't tell whether they helped or not, but they clearly didn't make things any worse. Big improvement! Huge improvement! In fact, I think I'm going to go back and reduce the font size to 10 - the 11 is almost too big.
But I know now how to do it and will if it ever appears necessary. Not that anyone cares, but I'm offering the following in the hope that someone at MS sees it and understands better the needs of their users. I've had the "dry form" of macular degeneration for around 20 years. It's still not serious, but it is finally beginning to affect the vision in my left eye - blurriness in the central vision.
I own three pairs of glasses, one for distance, a second for reading, and a third for intermediate distance. I use the reading glasses for my notebook a Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Carbon with a very nice display and they work fine for that.
I use the intermediate pair exclusively when using my desktop a Dell Inspiron S with a U monitor - good display, but not as good as the Lenovo. Up until 10 minutes ago I was switching glasses constantly, a real nuisance. When I wrote the last posting I had to use the reading glasses.
