hear, hear.

i can set my newsreader to a size that's convenient for me. i've just
gone to the bt site and it's too small so that i had to spend time
adjusting before i could read it.

as a general rule, i don't go to commercial sites if i can avoid it.
while bt's a lot less bloody stupid than it used to be, the droids who
design web sites seem far too often to like flashing graphics -- which
hurt my eyes and drive me away at first glance.
