Don't know for handicapped people, but after changing a little the
settings and tweaking at two places, I do now prefer Unity over
Kubuntu, Xubuntu and Lubuntu (tested them all). At least with the
least tweaking I get close to working highly efficient.

I hope there is a chance to get the features for disabled people well
integrated into Unity.

BTW: There is one little damn thing which I find very annoying: While
I find it totally cool to activate the last active window of that type
when clicking on the terminal launcher after having the browser active
and vice versa - there shouldn't be the other windows of the same type
also brought to front. Usually one switches between several windows of
the same type or between the same two windows of different type.

And I would desire a gnome menu button on the Unity launcher bar
optionally - sometimes I would prefer that over searching in Dash.

But after all the arguing against Unity since it was started - I need
to say that it's getting there where I can be really satisfied with
it.

Really hope that disabled people could get also some increased
productivity.

Best regards and thanks for all the brave programmers,

Martin.

Bug description:
  Microsoft has a majority market share in the new desktop PC marketplace.
  This is a bug, which Ubuntu is designed to fix.

  Non-free software is holding back innovation in the IT industry,
  restricting access to IT to a small part of the world's population and
  limiting the ability of software developers to reach their full
  potential, globally. This bug is widely evident in the PC industry.

  Steps to repeat:

  1. Visit a local PC store.

  What happens:
  2. Observe that a majority of PCs for sale have non-free software pre-installed.
  3. Observe very few PCs with Ubuntu and free software pre-installed.

  What should happen:
  1. A majority of the PCs for sale should include only free software like Ubuntu.
  2. Ubuntu should be marketed in a way such that its amazing features and benefits would be apparent and known by all.
  3. The system shall become more and more user friendly as time passes.
