This is the exact reason one of our home pages is straight HTML, W3C
certified. We can test old NIC cards on Win 95 or 98 with no problem! Yes,
the page could look a lot better and still be straight HTML; maybe when I
get time I will re-do it.
There really is no reason that web pages have to be so all-consuming.
Designers seem to think that we want to be overloaded with visual
sensations. Personally, I would much rather get the info I need, and not be
pestered with ads and garbage.
