I also agree with this, and I have a problem with someone whose view on
accessibility seems to focus on the technologies, not the people using
those technologies.
I have a modern browser (Firefox 3.5) with full support for Javascript,
Flash, etc. I also have disabilities which make it very difficult for
me to use some sites which employ those technologies. If you want me,
and people like me, to visit your site for more than a few seconds, then
I suggest you focus on whether we can access it, not whether our
computers can!

Agreed. Web applications built ‘for' closed intranets are the reason so
many corporates still have IE6 installed. There are perfectly good
selfish reasons why companies ought to consider accessibility. It's
about ensuring things just work.
