Microsoft continues to work with assistive technology companies and to
incorporate accessible features into the company's products. Here are a few
of Windows 2000 Professional's accessibility features: 


On Screen Keyboard displays a virtual keyboard on the computer screen that
enables people with mobility impairments to type data by using a pointing
device or joystick.  

Magnifier is a display utility that makes the computer screen more readable
for people who have low vision. Magnifier creates a separate window that
displays a magnifier portion of the screen.  

Narrator is a text-to-speech utility for people who are blind or have low
vision.  Narrator reads what is displayed on the screen - the contents of the
active window, menu options or text that has been typed. 

SerialKeys allows the use of alternative input devices instead of a keyboard
and mouse. 

ShowSounds instructs programs to display captions for the speech and sounds
they make.
