+ <title>Overview of Accessibility</title>
+ <para>The core business of Sun Microsystems is to connect people to information
+and services, including people with disabilities. Therefore, a key goal of
+Sun Microsystems is to provide a desktop that incorporates accessibility features
+to enable people with disabilities to use the desktop easily and efficiently.
+Recent legislation such as Section 508 of the U.S. Rehabilitation Act also
+heightens awareness of the need to provide accessible software. </para>
+ <para>The GNOME desktop is easy to use and incorporates many accessibility
+features. Every application and utility in the desktop is designed with accessibility
+and usability in mind. Users with physical disabilities such as low vision
+or impaired motor skills can use all of the functionality of the desktop thanks
+to the customization tools that are available. The customization tools enable
+you to customize the appearance and behavior of the desktop.</para>
+ <para> The customizability of the desktop contributes greatly to the accessibility
+of the desktop. This manual describes the various customization options that
+you can use to tailor the desktop to suit your particular needs.</para>

+apply a theme, the system modifies many desktop components simultaneously
+to achieve the desired effect. For example, if you apply a theme that increases
+the font size across the desktop, the theme also modifies the size of panels
+and icons on the desktop for optimum compatibility with the font size. </para>
