I agree. My father has low vision, and he's hardly unique. So he needs
to be able to boost the font size.
Any layout that:
1) does not work with user font size changes
2) does not allow user resizing of the windows
3) is not accessible to those using screen readers
4) uses a specified font size, rather than a relative size
5) has colors that would be difficult for color blind people to
distinguish (I'm no expert on this, but I think it means that the
difference between foreground and background colors should include an
intensity difference, not just a color difference)
is not acceptable.
Also, serif fonts are less readable on bitmapped displays. The fonts
should be sans-serif, like Arial or Helvetica.
