 What the pain must be to view that web site over dial-up... 
 This is telling: 
                  " 00898 hits since June 7, 2005 " 
 (Most of which are probably NG readers checking on your complaint.  :-) 
 
 My non-commercial web site gets more hits than that PER DAY. 
 
 I run several different web browsers on my linux box here for those 
 occasions when I MUST get in to see a web site.  Usually, tho', I 
 don't waste my time -- I just click off somewhere else... 
 
 The most infuriating are the home pages consisting of NOTHING but 
 flash eye-candy.  (The plus there is that type of web site rarely 
 gets into the Google lists.....)

I ran into an electronics wholesale website that was built entirely 
in flash I had updated the crappy Macromedia Flash software less than a 
week before, and it was out of date already so I e-mailed the webmaster 
and told them I wouldn't install more software on an already full hard 
drive to buy parts that were available from people who really wanted to 
sell, not just advertise.  I wonder if they fixed the site, or went out 
of business?  I know a lot of people who won't wait 10 minutes per page 
to download to be able to look for parts.
