I agree. You would think that these companies would make the connection
that people who are able to look at their web site are more technically
inclined than the people who look at an ad in the latest wide demographic
magazine. Car companies are the same. All you get are some slow to
download pictures and a little schmoozy text. You would think they would
put as much info to be accessible as there would be in a good brochure. I
would like to see more. A couple of times I have sent EMail to the Web
master. I did that with Olympus Japan's site. --Photos of their outdoor
