Hello Mark Thanks for the link to the Accessibility Blog; MS is indeed committed to accessible products for all users. I remember when Bill Gates announced the commitment during a developer's conference at Microsoft many years ago when Doug and Dan were much younger.
The mentioned improvements to Narrator, Edge, and so on are impressive! But what is the state of accessibility to Office apps (Word, Excel, etc.) with Narrator and Window-Eyes in the to-be-released Windows 10 update on August 2, 2016? Afterall, Office accdessibility is a cornerstone to success in college and business.
