Page magnification tools

Does anyone have any experience of using the Worksview page magnification tool on their site?

No experience, but generally speaking, someone who needs assistive technologies needs them for everything - browsing any web site, reading email, viewing photos, pm'ing etc - i.e. an OS level solution.

Worksview is installed on individual web sites, so is of limited benefit to someone who needs screen magnification (How do they navigate to the worksview website in the first place? Do they just browse around hoping that a website has worksview installed? What if they can't install an ActiveX control? etc).

Note that Windows XP includes a basic screen magnifier [microsoft.com] as does OSX [apple.com]
