I have been surfing the net for many years, and the experience is gradually worsening.

I have a 4-bit, 320x200 display, a 9600 baud modem and Netscape 0.0.4c (beta version). My OS is dosshell.

Like Anne Robinson, I hate ditherers. I had to buy a new CPU fan just to cope with these high colour sites.


I can't view tables, frames or forms. Cookies also take up too much space on my hard disk. Please keep the width of pages down and images small and preferably in two colour.

Maybe you could make an alternate version of your site for people like me, or at least put something witty between those NO FRAMES tags.

Will you please show a bit more consideration when designing web pages? I don't think this is too much to ask.

PS what is this new language about to revolutionise the web? I think it's called Antigua or something.

That computer is a super-computer compared to my cousin's in Canada. He doesn't even have a mouse, or a moniter. He just turns it on and types away, and has to imagine all the wonderfull webpages that he might be looking at.

There will still be a few people who have problems with it.

Can't please everyone... Just try to please the majority.
