Well, I don't know swedguy, that was my question. I understand they bought porn when there was no broadband. There was no option and nothing to compare it to.

I loved the taste of bologna until I had my first hamburger. I loved the taste of hamburger until I ate my first T-bone. I loved the taste of T-bone until I ate my first standing Rib. I loved the taste of standing Rib until I ate my first pussy.
ain't nuthun been right since ........!

"They" is relevent to "when". If you're referring to 6 months ago or 6 years ago it's an apples to oranges comparison. I'm talking about today, March 2006, not yesteryear.

Did you worry about 20% of the internet users who had 10" amber monitors in 1998? If not, then why worry about 20% of the users who have dialup today? Broadband grows at nearly 1% per month. It doesn't appear it will level off until ISP's refuse to pipe bb to the 'back 40'. Moz/NN/FF users currently comprise a bigger user base than dialup.

My question was; How important do you consider page load times? Or graphic load times? Is that something you monitor/consider during design?
