My first attempt was a total bust. My main browser (FF) I do't install anything - I use out of the box so that I see what users who don't install see. So no Flash. Instead I got what I continue to be a completly useless msg, especially for a corporate site "To view this website, You need to have Flash Player 7 installed on your system. Please briefly visit the Macromedia download page to quickly install the required software before entering our site. Altenatively, we will shortly provide a text only HTML version for users who cannot view active content." So then I switch to IE 6 and waited for it to load. And thought maybe it hadn't all loaded becasue it was a black and white page with text links that started on the about page. I don't think a website should start on an about page, and I see absolutely no reason for a flash site that had no graphics (except for a map that zooms on a scroll). Also there isn't enough text to tell me anything (except on the press page). And I didn't like the little arrow that changed the size, since it was just links and short text why would I need it larger. Sorry, but I thought this was a perfect example of technology for technologies sake. -- Susan R.
