you insist that Microsoft will eventually make edge accessible. Do you
know this? And please, I am not asking for your wishful thinking.
You know nothing of the kind, you were speaking out of a part of your
body lower than your mouth.
It is inexcusable, and really contrary to law, that this browser is
allowed to exist in its current form.

Butch,
We still have mouse keys in Internet Explorer. It's one of the
reasons IE is my default browser. So I'm not sure what you're missing.
Yes, Amazon has become a bit dicey over the years. Then again, they
have their accessible site as well.
Regards,
Tom

Yep, and no matter what they come out with, we're told, upgrade,
upgrade, this is better. I still miss mouse keys in explorer.
I was
trying to order some stuff on amazon this evening and couldn't get
logged in, this was on a windows seven machine and latest
explorer. I
finally went back to my xp and old explorer and although it
barked at me
about some script slowing the page down, it worked fine. Got to
keep
drinking that ms cool aid.

Well, old man, some of us aren't as old as you and if you

actually work for a living. This means not every one can just go
installing whatever browser we want on our machine. I'm sure
you never
thought about that either while you're sitting there
collecting your
government checks. I realize you are not a forward thinker,
but some
people can actually see the direction MS is headed. They can
and most
certainly will force you to use whatever they damn well
please. Not to
mention all the many apps coming out that are using the Edge
browser
with no way to change it.
Now go back to sticking that big head of yours in the sand.

You may get some
interest on it. Then again, why bother? After all we
will all die
one day.
And that's a fact. Oh but wait! There is Firefox and
chrome. And I hear
those browsers are eternal. Maybe they're the Stairway
