That is such a great point! (I wish I had made it. :) ) We techies so often forget that our view of the world is different than the typical end user. 10 years ago it was a true technical accomplishment to have an Internet connection and LAN in your own home. (I think I just strained my arm patting myself on the back. :) ) Nowadays, it's a complete no-brainer that anyone can do and the vast majority of Internet users are not technically savvy. The Internet is becoming to be treated in the same manner as automobiles. I.e. "I just want it to work and don't care how it works."

That's one of the reasons why I use TB! so that much of the HTML nonsense is filtered for me. That's my choice. Many, if not most, enjoy the background gif of a notebook, the sand on a beach, waving palms, on and on ad nauseam. -- Dave Kennedy ________________________________________________ Current version is 2.00 | "Using TBUDL" information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
