Once again, ignorance triumphs over the facts.

Actually, the Mac was one of the first OS's to offer built-in support for the handicapped user. In addition to other utilities designed to make the machine useful to the visually impaired, there is a function called 'sticky keys' that allows the user to build sequences of keystrokes (and mouse clicks) one at a time for users with severe physical disablities. Try using a Windows machine without being able to simultaneously hold down the Ctrl-Alt-Delete keys... Or Move a file when the OS wants to copy it... Or... well, you get the point.

Also, the MacOS is full of other, subtle features -- for instance if you turn the sound down all the way, alerts cause the Menu bar to flash so deaf users can "hear' the computer "beep".
