It may not meet standards, nor might it be usable in links or what have you, but if you're willing to go through some of the cruft, newegg is not an online retailer to be ignored. Not I'm not saying it's perfectly accessible, just that you shouldn't just throw it out if you can deal with it. Cody: Compared to newegg, outletpc is practically a joke in terms of selection from what I've looked at so far. Some..wait, make that most, manufacturers, e.g. for motherboards, are completely missing. I think newegg has more socket am2 motherboards than all of outletpc's mobo selection combined. Also not available are nice discounts for combos. Even on the hardware outletpc has that newegg also has the prices aren't that comparable. Newegg also has the fantastic option that not many have to seriously narrow down exactly what you want - e.g. go from Motherboard to AMD compatible to socket AM2 to sort by manufacturer/price..free shipping or not, bestsellers, and so on. If you're willing to spend the time and use the software that'll make your newegg experience least painful, it's worth it. And if you like it enough, you should complain to them about it: http://www.newegg.com/Info/ContactUs.aspx for what it's worth, I don't work for newegg. I also like some other retailers like zipzoomfly and (used to like) tiger direct. However, I don't get the newegg bashing, cause other than the slight inaccessibility (please don't flame me for this, it's completely subjective) it's a fantastic place. In fact even if it were more expensive than some of its competitors I'd still go here, because their products get shipped to me fast because i live near one of their warehouses, and also because their customer support, like I have said, is amazing. cheers, jane On 9/11/07, John Heim <jheim at math.wisc.edu> wrote: > Your idea of "perfectly accessible" is having to use IE? > > newegg.com doesn't meet 408 standards or the WAI level 1 guidelines.
