(...) I looks like some <insert pejorative here> has simply made a CD of BrickShelf. I say take let the eBay and TLC lawyer types growl in his(her?) direction. If that doesn't work, then take the muzzles off and let 'em loose. SRC Nothing (...) (24 years ago, 2-Jan-01, to lugnet.lego.direct)

(...) It must be a Mac thing. I have been complaining about slow menu loading for a while. Using IE 5 and Netscape 4.7, the bulk pages take about 4 min to load.

  Re: S@H woes
 
I've been testing different browsers on my own web site (trying to implement advice the books give on being compatible--not easy.) Anyway, now I have Mac IE 3, 4, and 5 set up. Only 5 plays well with www.lego.com. It is more tolerable than Netscape (...) (24 years ago, 2-Jan-01, to lugnet.lego.direct)
 
  Re: S@H woes
 
Guess what? Those S@H menus don't work in IE 4 either. (Time to upgrade?) It turns out, IE 4 can't even be used on Microsoft's website anymore because too many links are implemented as javascript actions instead of, um, links. For instance, it's (...)

  Re: S@H woes
 
(...) Yes, because of those awful menus, I don't use the website. A real shame. I don't have this problem on some other sites that use menus. I bet it's partly the browser. (24 years ago, 1-Jan-01, to lugnet.lego.direct)
 
  S@H woes
 
OK, I've tried to be patient on this but I've had enough. Whenever I go to Shop @ Home and follow a link to a new page, I have to wait for a good solid 30 seconds while my browser displays a message that says "Please wait, menus being loaded." It (...)

  Re: Surely this is not legal
 
It would probably be illegal if it became obvious that the person "auctioning" that particular item was going to make a lot of money doing that. But at $1.30 ea. it doesn't look likely. Of course, TLG could say that this isn't a fair interpretation (...) (24 years ago, 31-Dec-00, to lugnet.lego.direct)
