I agree, Microsoft has seemed to be lip service only with a few good accessibility teasers,but that is all.
I do appreciate, though, the Microsoft Accessibility Line. That is the one good thing, but not enough.

If they really wanted computers to talk like Macs do they could make them do so. All one needs do is look at the Edge browser and say no more. I wonder if they'll strike a deal with vfo and Office like they did with Window-eyes. Anything to stall or keep from making computers talk like a Mac. So one could say "Chuck, shut up and get a mac!" My reply, easier said than done. Just my thoughts. I've sent Microsoft feedback on this subject. Microsoft has the money and the ability to do anything they wish.
