Hi, Charles Maybe I'm missing something. The web offers people much information and various web pages are architected to help people make all kinds of decisions. The impression that you're giving is that there is absolutely no way that a web page can help a person easily decide on the optimum format for them. We got some pretty smart grad students here at Berkeley. I'm sure one of them could come up with some clever ideas if need be.
