Boy! is that hitting home at this moment!
I'm working on a site where I have to go to the manufacturer's site to get
photos and info for the client's updates.
I have taken on the job on a per item basis. Each time I need to change to a
new category, I have to sit and wait through a loooong flash presentation
about how wonderful the product is. If I were shopping, I would hit the stop
button and find another place to do my shopping.
(My 2� worth),
