their users use. It would take a special interest group, maybe one for some disability, to publicize that using IE is inaccessible to them, and since IE is fairly accessible to most groups, I don’t see that happening.
At Sydney's April WSG meeting "Checking for Web Access for Blind and Vision Impaired", I asked Robert Spriggs from the Royal Blind Society which operating system and browser they recommend.
His answer was Windows and Internet Explorer. Adaptive technology (such as screen magnifiers, screen readers, talking browsers and Braille devices) used by RBS is almost exclusively designed to integrate/interface with Windows and IE.
For their clients, Internet Explorer was an important part of "accessible Internet."
