which is why i use amazon.com/access... the home page (and 
every other page) is way the hell too slow...

> E-bay: 110k

don't use it... in fact, refuse to use any site that instead of 
accepting the URL without the "www," it *refreshes* me to the 
"www"-prepended version... that and it takes to long to find 
anything of value there...

> Yahoo: 38k

i use google -- primarily for better results, and secondarily because 
it loads faster...

absotively...

not trying to pick on your examples, but i find it ironic that the sites 
you cite are precisely the sites i avoid *because* they're so damn 
heavy...
