[thelist] home page max size

So, the redesign of www.magisnetworks.com (new =
www.magisnetworks.com/new2002) is virtually done, but they really really
really want TWO huge graphics (35k each) to alternate on the home page.

Our target market is upper management in extremely high-end high-tech
companies. No home users whatsoever will be courted to visit the site and no
one will care if they do.

How completely DEADLY is a 128k home page under these circs? I firmly
believe it's bad and wrong because we don't know, for instance, if Bob
Moneybags, the potential investor, might have a 33.6 modem at home and get
tweaked 'cause he can't see the site. Since I have this enormous mindpool to
tap, figured I should check my assumptions before starting a battle. Are
there other potential disasters?

Thanks so much.
