I'm curious as to what the problem is?  I mean, I don't have much of a 
problem, but I use a legible font and use <ctrl>+ to increase the font size to 
a comfortable size (on my 32" monitor), and the colors are my preferred black 
on a white background (as opposed to a light color on a dark background--
which, among other things, some applications or websites still do some things 
wrong when they interpolate colors for <can't recall the phrase, but when they 
scale fonts>.

The user interface isn't ideal (I mean, too many choices, I imagine a non-
sighted person might get frustrated listening to all the choices).

And, in general, I'd prefer to see several posts from the same thread on one 
page rather than paging for each post....

But, is there something else, and which is the biggest problem for non-sighted 
or partially sighted people?
