Tell that to my water supplier. Not videos, but actual menus. And 50% cpu load.
You're in Spain, no? I've never seen so many useless flash sites like here and I've never seen so much inability even in big companies. Sometimes I wonder why internet even works here.
Money. People have offered services to businesses to create presence in Internet, so they do. Shiny sites, often with static information. With mailboxes they never even retrieve.
In fact my former electricity supplier had a website that was only accessible with internet exploder. As they, of course, did not react on my complaint, I have changed the supplier. Now I pay less and have a quite decent website to see my bills...
Try Chrome. Most of the sites I need work with FF, and those that don't work with Chrome. But yes, I know at least one that wants IE: Securitas Direct. And it is not based in Spain. The other day they emailed a link to a new test site that asks for login, on a different domain, so it could be a phishing attempt. Yes, I emailed them, complaining. No answer. But at least it works in Linux. Many gadgets require you use Windows for maintenance. Like Samsung or TomTom. Even if the gadgets have Linux inside.
YOU must tell them. Otherwise they think they are great geniuses and instead of doing their work take another mojito on the beach :-)
"Yo paso". That's a lost cause here. In fact this water company doesn't do anything over internet. The flash box is just a list of phones and addresses. Street addresses, no email. Fax. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 13.1 x86_64 "Bottle" at Telcontar)
