Do you guys have any idea how much business they're losing because of this ? Their web guys must be getting a lot of $#!T from the higher-ups.

I know the feeling.

I got it after a couple of refreshes, but I do get this a lot, now. I can just see the meeting about this, too.

Corp: You guys messed up.

Tech: You guys wouldn't approve the budget for more bandwidth.

Corp: Find a way to fix it.

Tech: Sure thing (as he goes to ATOT to nef for the rest of the day)

they really fvcked that site up. it is much more difficult to find stuff. i used to be able to get what i need in 3-4 clicks, and now it takes like 8. i'll bet they outsourced the development to the lowest bidder. "yeah, we'll make the new bestbuy.com for $50,000, and it will rock."

<------- used to work for one of those crappy low bidders. . .
