This is a real shame as outspoken was about the first accessible graphic

Without these products, it would seem the government will not be able to
purchase macs in a year or two.

This is bad news for Mac users who are blind or visually impaired.....is
there any other company stepping in to fill the gap?  And what is Apple
doing about this?  Think of all the school systems that utilize Macs --
what will their students do who need these types of assistive technology?
