Well, in theory my cable internet is now 4 meg down. Which is more than
30 times faster (or 60 times faster if you are only using one of the B
channels instead of both)

 PS> I guess the same applies to web designers, as you say.

Don't get me started. Bewtween the ones who don't realize that other
people may have a higher res screen (and thus the cutesy background
graphic winds up masking part of the text) or that folks fdon't want
the stupid background music endlessly looping (a blind friend has a lot
of mostly unprintable things to say about *that* bit of stupidity, as
it make itimpossible for her to hear her screen reader reading the
text), there are lots of stupid "designers" out there.
