Hi, that is interesting William, I was about to say the opposite. I
took a class in AWS this last Spring, and I found the web console to
be terribly inaccessible using Jaws and Google Krome. perhaps using
NVDA and Firefox provides a better experience, but I was having
problems with unlabeled buttons, tables that were designed badly where
the collumn headers were split into a second table, dialogs that Jaws
would not notify me appeared and often times couldn't get to, and
other problems that I don't remember off the top of my head. I got
through my class with a lot of sighted assistance. I recall a lot of
my struggles were in managing S2 services I believe, which is the
service for managing virtual machines. I didn't know that there was a
command line tool for using AWS at the time, but I am guessing that it
would have been the better way for me to go.

Unless Amazon has updated its web console over the past few months, I
would be interested to hear your experience William.
