My 2-year old Mozilla can't even begin reading
this site- kicks out with error msg I've never
seen before, something like: "can't enter site;
some data may have been transferred".
Hire 'one true way' M$ heads to work for peanuts
to create/maintain your website and you loose
potential customers like this. They're trying to
sell hardware fer xsakes!
BTW, I am looking, once again, for 3/4 inch coax
connectors for nitrogen-cell CATV cable which was
free, but sorry you can't have any of our
connectors......

The all too common focus on Form Instead Of Function.
What the pain must be to view that web site over dial-up...
This is telling:
" 00898 hits since June 7, 2005 "
(Most of which are probably NG readers checking on your complaint. :-)
My non-commercial web site gets more hits than that PER DAY.
I run several different web browsers on my linux box here for those
occasions when I MUST get in to see a web site. Usually, tho', I
don't waste my time -- I just click off somewhere else...
The most infuriating are the home pages consisting of NOTHING but
flash eye-candy. (The plus there is that type of web site rarely
gets into the Google lists.....)

I ran into an electronics wholesale website that was built entirely
in flash I had updated the crappy Macromedia Flash software less than a
week before, and it was out of date already so I e-mailed the webmaster
and told them I wouldn't install more software on an already full hard
drive to buy parts that were available from people who really wanted to
sell, not just advertise. I wonder if they fixed the site, or went out
of business? I know a lot of people who won't wait 10 minutes per page
to download to be able to look for parts.

You emailed the wrong fella. The webmaster's Prime Directive is to protect
and expand the webmaster's job. You need to get the message to the folks who
lay awake at night -- wondering how (if) they can stay in business.
More than installing "...more software on an already full hard drive...",
I'm tired of spend a large percentage of my "computing time" constantly
updating my system(s). Imagine, if you will, devoting that kind of effort
on your car, your TV, or your HVAC -- just to get the same 'utility' out
of it tomorrow that you got out of it yesterday. sigh...

The webmaster was the only address I could find without installing
the software and all of the blind e-mails to info@, sales@ and other
common business addresses all bounced. it doesn't really matter, because
I can't remember the name of the company, even though their flashy
trashy website is supposed to make you want to come back again and
again.

Well, if "sales@" bounces, they can't be all that bothered about doing
business...

That was the way I felt about them, too. They probably had a
Javascript you had to use to reply directly, buried somewhere under all
of their Flash trash. No matter, the site was enough to convince me
they didn't want my business.

The OP has just posted a similar ad in
misc.industry.electronics.marketplace. Email address, phone and fax,
street address, but *NO WEB URL*
Crossposted to all the original groups except this one.
Maybe somebody is taking notice ;-)

I think this is a new name for Pasternac Enterprises. It has the
same posting style of Murray Pasternac who spammed the newsgroups for
years with his vacuum tube collection ads.
