Yeah...1.18 MB of nothing.  They obviously are not concerned with dialup users 
either...

Just for fun I went to my Netflix account with JS turned off.  For those who 
don't know, Netflix is a DVD rental company that's pretty big here in the U.S., 
and they use a ton of JS to enhance the user experience.

Of course you can't use the 5-star rating, that was to be expected.  What 
surprised me was that the "Update queue" buttons are greyed out, so you cannot 
update/sort your queue with JS off.  Also, the FAQ's at the bottom of the queue 
didn't work.

To top it off, there was no "noscript" message to tell the user why things 
weren't working or suggest they try to enable javascript.  Pretty sad lack of 
degradation...

  whoa! that is the scariest thing I've seen in a long time. With JavaScript: 
respectable news site. Without JavaScript: umm, nothing.
