Re: Something to think of when you have a problem accessing web sites

I was annoyed a little while ago looking at The Age website when I tried  
to look at a video linked from the main page.  I had a choice of 5  
different connect speeds to view it using Windows Media.  Nothing else!!

Sam - are you listening?  Why don't The Age on-line people wake up to the  
world beyond Microsoft like the BBC and others do?

BTW now using the new Opera 8.5 - totally free and no longer with ads.
