You are acting as if you are required to purchase a Microsoft product.
I'm sorry that not everything in our world is accessible to us. If you
don't like what MS is doing you can look for another option.

You know nothing of the kind, you were speaking out of a part of your body
lower than your mouth.
It is inexcusable, and really contrary to law, that this browser is allowed
to exist in its current form.

Butch,
We still have mouse keys in Internet Explorer. It's one of the reasons IE
is my default browser. So I'm not sure what you're missing.
Yes, Amazon has become a bit dicey over the years. Then again, they have
their accessible site as well.
Regards,
Tom

Yep, and no matter what they come out with, we're told, upgrade,
upgrade, this is better. I still miss mouse keys in explorer. I was
trying to order some stuff on amazon this evening and couldn't get
logged in, this was on a windows seven machine and latest explorer. I
finally went back to my xp and old explorer and although it barked at me
about some script slowing the page down, it worked fine. Got to keep
drinking that ms cool aid.

Well, old man, some of us aren't as old as you and if you think really
really hard, maybe you can figure this one out as well. Some of us
actually work for a living. This means not every one can just go
installing whatever browser we want on our machine. I'm sure you never
thought about that either while you're sitting there collecting your
government checks. I realize you are not a forward thinker, but some
people can actually see the direction MS is headed. They can and most
certainly will force you to use whatever they damn well please. Not to
mention all the many apps coming out that are using the Edge browser
with no way to change it.
Now go back to sticking that big head of yours in the sand.

Yes, in fact, Jack, I have done a lot of research. It's why I'm not

a coronary over Edge. What will come in the future means absolutely
nothing today. Take that to the bank and deposit it. You may get some
interest on it. Then again, why bother? After all we will all die
one day.
And that's a fact. Oh but wait! There is Firefox and chrome. And I hear
those browsers are eternal. Maybe they're the Stairway to Heaven

You're entitled to your own opinion, but have you done any actual
research to find out what's really going on in the world? For
example,
Win10 is the last version that will have Internet Explorer. That's a
fact, jack. Look it up if you don't believe me.

This is just my personal opinion. So take it for what it's worth.
Edge accessibility will come. Microsoft is not going to
force us to
use only Edge as someone on this list likes to say.
Regarding searching from the Cortana search box? Yes, that
is tied to
Edge now. But for me, so what. My browser is pinned to the Task bar
and my home page is Google. So when I press Windows+1 IE opens,
Google
loads, I'm in the search box, and browse mode toggles off. So I
press
one key combination, type my text, hit enter, and I've got my
results
without anything else in my start menu or on my system. Yes, it may
take me a second or two longer. but on the other hand, I can
activate
a link and then hit Alt-Left arrow to go back to the search
results. I
don't know why this fly is turning into a vulture that's
threatening
civilization as we know it. ;)

Tom
