I know its hard to believe but, at least this is what I tell myself: I
remain on dial-up so as not to be tempted to make slow loading websites. But
I am sorely tempted by broadband if only to overcome the frustration of
using sites made by folks who do not have this concern. I do not have any
overall view about *all* sites needing to be friendly to dial up. It is just
that mostly in my work it is an important criteria.

(yes, I know. People can have broadband and still make sites dial up
friendly...)

> I do feel everyone is way too picky when it comes to websites.

Yes, ok. But maybe think of it this way: one point of *this* newsgroup is to
chew the fact on websites. When folk are criticising things and finding
fault, it may not be that they really think the sites concerned are truly
dreadful. Sometimes this is the case, but often, it is just shop talk,
throwing ideas back and forth. Seriously yes, but the point is, that it is
instructive to see how far short of perfection even a good site might be...
