Default Please restore the white-text-on-blue-background for Word 2007

Why is that unrealistic? We're talking about a VERY significant feature for
people with eye problems and disabilities. And a VERY minor and easy tweak
for Microsoft.

It seems to me that they are snub those of us with disabilities. Eye
problems affected by stark, bright light aren't fun; be happy you don't have
them, and a little more sympathetic to those that do.

By all means ask Microsoft to put this back, but don't be too surprised if
they don't.

Dear Suzanne,

You and I are not taking surveys here. I'm simply passing along a
request for an OPTION which you don't have to use, but I would hope
that you don't attempt to undermine my request by suggesting that my
tiny local survey was misleading. Neither of us has done a
numerically significant survey, nor was that the basis for my
request. But I think we CAN agree that what I'm asking for can only
HELP users, not hurt them, and surely there are many other options
that are already in Word that will be used by smaller fractions of
users than one that makes it easier to SEE the screen! How can
anyone be against THAT?


No matter how many users you know personally who use this feature,
they will still be a minuscule percentage of Word users. Do you have
any idea how many Word users there are?

PLEASE restore the white-text-on-blue-background option for Word
2007! I saw one blogger who claimed WTBB was only used by a
miniscule percentage of Word users, but that is NOT TRUE! There
are MANY users that I personally know who use it and we're all
devastated that Word 2007 has dropped it as an option. PLEASE
restore this option immediately! --
