in 1990, when OutSpoken for the Mac came out and I was using it at my place of employment, I was asked to demonstrate it as a visually impaired computer users group in Boston, MA. I got up there and demonstrated it with four part harmony and feeling, and the guy from MS got up and started asking me "what can't you do with the mac? are there programs you can't use? tell me about that." I started to say that some programs were inaccessible, and he interrupted me and said "well there you go; it's not a real solution." I blew up at him, called him several names and then asked him to demonstrate how his graphics programs and even some of the mainstream DOS products were not accessible--this is *BEORE* VocalEyes came out, I believe. I was shouted down and told to leave, and take my Mac with me. That's what happens when you think outside the blind box.
