Wow - leave the one button mouse alone

[Gordon Neault]

I have to disagree about the braille keys.
Blind users will have been taken to a given machine (say at the bank 
branch they deal with or the closest one in the neighborhood) with a 
sighted person and shown how to use the machine by touch alone. They don't 
go around willy-nilly using every kind of ATM around, they use a specific 
unit at a specific location. In all likelyhood, they have accounts set up 
in such a way that on the particular machine they use, it is a button they 
can find on the view screen, etc. They know and memorize the procedure, 
etc. The number keys are the only part where they have to be sure they 
enter the right amounts. They select $80 and they know they have 4 20's in 
their hand, the blind keep track of life differently than you and I. It is 
a mistake to think they use ATMs like the sighted do.
