And yes, over 50% of the customers whose opinions I hear about the
online shop I'm responsible for ask for something like this.

Be careful making wishes, you might get what you ask for...

I'm fairly sure that won't be happening. OTOH, I can imagine plenty of
people being happy with it.

My mum's been asking me for training on how to find what you want from the
web, so I guess I'll be finding a bit more out on that front soon.

What's the point of that? A slow, non-searchable simulation of a paper
catalogue that makes whooshing noises when you turn the page.

Agreed - it's unusable. Maybe it looked nice when Evans web-designers
showed it to them on a big 24 inch screen with the content sat
locally.

There you go - the point of it is to keep penniless web-designers in dry
bread and water. :-)

I worked for Evans for five years until 1991 when they had a small
handfull of shops. I was workshop manager at one point and also worked
in sales. I got cancer and during the treatment I would still go to
work, sit on a chair in the shop and serve. Id been asking for a pay
rise since day one but when I was ill I asked again. The manager
approached me, and informed me that Gary Smith had told him that it was
pointless to give me a pay rise because I wouldnt live long enough to
spend it! He and his evil side kick Mike Rice dont need any more of
anybody elses money. Support your local IBS. (Unless its Evans)

Then you won't be pleased by the write-up they got in yesterday's
telegraph magazine.
