---------Download time
----Overall look & feel
Very cool site. I like the look and feel, colors, layout and graphics. In NN
4.3  and AOL 3. the frames worked fine and everything loads quickly. In MSIE
3.2 download time was long. Frames are always slow to load in IE 3.2.
The text on the "phone lady" graphic - buy phones - was a little shadowy. Not
all necessary pixels were bright enough, leaving it blurry. 

------Navigation

The links at the bottom looked good. The links to the left were simple enough,
but when I clicked on "the business" there appeared all new links to the left.
I was lost for a second or two, then remembered the bottom links. :)
May I suggest something like:

About TEC
     The Business
     Total Providers
     Shipping Issue
     The Bottom Lin
Products
Services
Contact Us

...which still leaves your original navigation, but also inserts the new nav
as a subset. I would _not_, however, recommend an Applet that makes a tree or
whatever. That would make the whole thing too heavy. Just simple text.

On services/default.htm
"You won't recognize your product when you get it back!" for some reason made
me think your company might switch products on me.:) Of course they wouldn't
do that, but it crossed my mind. Possible wording for a similar meaning like,
"virtually like new" or something would keep negativities at bay.

Also, 
"Computer Telephony" is an often used
phrase. What does this much
 talked about phenomenon really do? "
I would have like to have seen a brief description of telephony. If I don't
know what it is, I may be inclined to pass it by. Asking me to contact the
company for a definition, and a sales pitch, turns me off. Tell me whats so
cool about it and I might start thinking I need it. I surf to avoid a sales
pitch. 

One more and I'm through. 
I clicked on "sell us your stuff" and the heading was "sell us your stuff" and
the first sentence was "sell us your stuff". One too many "stuff"s. First
sentence could define things a little more by saying "sell us your used
equipment", or whatever I'll be selling to you.


I liked the theme of the site, gave it a fun/energetic feel.
All in all -  A+.
