Cool Wegpage at www.legomedia.com

Hey, whoa -- weird.

I was just writing up a mail saying how cool it was that the new LEGO Media
site had a separate special graphic clicky on it that says

   FLASH VERSION |>

(so it doesn't force Flash down your throat, in other words), and then my
browser went kablooie when I clicked on it, and upon restarting it, the new
site has reverted to the old site!

I wonder if they reverted the pages a few hours ago, just as they did for
the 2000 catalog on www.lego.com two weeks ago(?).  Hmm...

I get a "404 Not Found" error on that, when it was just loading fine 5
minutes ago.

The nonflash versions are usually pretty overdone too. And I (...) (24 years ago, 4-Jan-00, to lugnet.general, lugnet.publish)
