So how many Web sites have you designed   Dave?
The internet is a fast growing place and download speeds are increasing with
the new types of connections, Why should everyone else on the net design
there websites for  the small percentage of people that will not upgrade
there connections or hardware.
 I suggest you get rid of your 386 and 14.4 modem, and try Cable maybe?
Oh and 640x480 might be good for solitaire but the internet just doesn't cut
it on such a poor resolution.
