Actually I don't make websites, I create flash based Web e-learning
usually for an intranet. But I understand your point. My answer is
dependent on what does the site require? Would the site be more
effective if it caters to broadband (say a site that deals with live
music or video) or is it more an information type site? In your
specific example, if the site needed t be accessed by the general public
around the world, then I would lean in the direction of accessibility
and generic usability.

And that is where I lean with the issue of accessibility and usability.
The site owner must be allowed to create a site that works best for
his clients, not the general population. The two can be different.
