(...) I personally prefer the other interface. I can't access QuickSet mainly for two reasons: 1. I have Javascript turned off. 2. I hate Javascript. :-, Cheers, - jsproat (24 years ago, 18-Aug-00, to lugnet.admin.database)

I for one have really just never seen an advantage to the small version. Others may like it, and it is a cool concept, but I prefer the full size browser window. The mini-windows just seem to get lost in the crowd. Of course, I have a 19" monitor (...) (24 years ago, 18-Aug-00, to lugnet.admin.database)

For example, I opened up the QuickSet(minimal) window, did a couple of searches, and left all the result windows open. Then, in my (...) (24 years ago, 18-Aug-00, to lugnet.admin.database)

Hiya, How's LUGNET's little QuickSet utility working out for everyone? Good? Bad? So-so? What in tarnation is it? Bueller? According to server logs, the main (big, full-page) DB search box gets used about 15 times as often to look up sets. The logs (...) (24 years ago, 18-Aug-00, to lugnet.admin.database, lugnet.general)

Suzanne found some Consumer Affairs which indicate that LEGO publishes U.S. MSRP's as ending in .00 (or just the dollar amount) rather than ending in .99. Based on this, and in the interest of saving people time reading, we're making a quick pass (...) (24 years ago, 16-Aug-00, to lugnet.admin.database)
