You guys have been real nice... a lot of threads treat dial-up users with a pretty rough "you get what you deserve" attitude even though broadband isn't even available every where and some people can't afford it in any case. I have not sensed a trace of that attitude in this thread which is something I appreciate. As far as I can tell the reason for the lack of attitude about the subject this time is that it was politely brought up. The last time as I recall it started with a demand from a dial-up user and that's why so little sympathy for the limits of dial-up was offered. You get out what you put in I suppose. Balancing the the quality of the design and the amount of user-friendlyness is a tricky thing. There are limits on both ends and it's sometimes hard to know how to hit the middle of the spectrum to satisfy the most ppl. I prefer to be on the high side toward more quality since the leading edge of what's available to ppl is always growing so more are able to handle the demands.
