Accessible Technology Can Help People with Multiple Sclerosis, but Too Few Use It | |
|

| Time: 10:27 EST/15:27 GMT | News Source: Microsoft | Posted By: Jonathan Tigner | ||

New research released this week shows that technology plays a vital role in helping many people with multiple sclerosis (MS) manage and live with their disease, yet relatively few are using accessible technologies that could help them overcome many of the visual, dexterity, mobility and cognitive challenges brought on by MS. To help people with MS learn more about accessible technology and related resources, the MS Technology Collaborative has put together a Web site called MyMSMyWay.com. The group also launched a personalized, interactive, Web-based program called “Snapshot,” which is intended to show people with MS how technology can adapt to their changing needs and help them use it to achieve their goals. In addition, Microsoft provides extensive information about accessible technology on its corporate Web site. | ||

The same accessibility features from Windows 95 (except speech) with only a minor and bad UI redesign and MS is claiming Vista has improved accessibility over XP that makes it "easier to find" stuff. Ease of Access center..lol...add some real features to Windows 7, MS.
Edited to reword: rxcall, my point is MS claims Vista offers accessibility improvements over XP when there aren't any. This post was edited by tuxplorer on Saturday, October 27, 2007 at 00:27. |

Microsoft nowhere claimed innovation in the article. They are simply claiming that Vista makes it easier for people with disabilities (Multiple Sclerosis in particular) to find the tools and resources to make their life easier.
Of all the things to bellyache about with Microsoft, you pick this. |
