Actually, it's not just disabled people who benefit. The on-screen
keyboard and MouseKeys are useful for touch-screen applications where
there is no keyboard and no mouse, only a touch-screen display.
Touch-screen applications (specifically, point-of-sale apps) usually
have their own on-screen keyboard, if needed, but the WinXP OnScreen
Keyboard and MouseKeys are suitable for when I have to make changes to
such a system, since the on-screen keyboard that comes with the app
typically only works within that app.

Good advice is like good paint- it only works if applied.
