According to an analyst, Microsoft has done a slipshod job of making Windows 7 usable for vision impaired people...He encourages people who have downloaded the Windows 7 public beta to use the "send feedback" feature to submit a request that Microsoft make it possible for the magnifier to work with the high constrast scheme.

I'd think adding an email client would be even more important. ??? Eh?

It's a BETA....don't expect all functions and features to work, or even be there.
Wait for the full retail version and I'm sure everything will work.

Personally, it looks just like Vista to me. I saw no improvement, worth mentioning.

If you can't stand Vista, you won't like 7.

I don't bother to test, since windows are crap! Look at vista, slow, big, buggy. not compatible with many hardware.

I would rather use a MAC instead.

Maybe if you knew what you were doing you would not feel that way. Vista when it first came out was buggy, had little driver support. After the release of SP1 that all changed. I have been running Vista Ultimate since SP1 and I rarely have any problems with it. Because of everything I have running in the background and at startup it is slow to restarrt and boot, however once everything is loaded Vista is the proverbial "Bat Out Of Hell" in other words it moves.
