The OP means "assistive" as in "tools used by people who are disabled". It's not a choice to be blind.

- icambron 14y agoWhat is the relationship between "assistive technology" and "old browser"? It would surprise me if that tech was only available for IE7.
- gte910h 14y agoThe apps they use probably have a web browser embedded in them. They may not have 5k for a brand new version
- jlawer 14y agoNo... generally its software like JAWS (http://www.freedomscientific.com/products/fs/jaws-product-page.asp http://www.freedomscientific.com/products/fs/jaws-product-pa...) that runs on stock windows. No special hardware running antiquated hardware, just a stock windows system. While I don't doubt there are solutions with a web browser embedded in them, the refresh cycle on such hardware is so old that people have moved off them on to more "generic" solutions a while ago.
- chris_wot 14y agoI'd be very curious as to which apps these are. Eventually, they'll be left in the cold regardless. In at least two years time there will hopefully be nobody supporting IE6!
