[LUG] Argos.co.uk with Mozilla



As a linux user, I dont use Internet Explorer. If you want to discriminate 
against at least 5% of your potential customers, or rather, reduce your sales 
by at least 5%, then that's your problem. I find it hillarious, however, that 
if I change my User Agent string to pretend I use Internet Explorer 6 on 
Windows XP, many features on the site work fine, and I found the item I 
wanted  - a Ferguson T70171RI 28in NICAM TV, £229.99, Cat.No. 537/4016, very 
quickly. 

Perhaps you would care to halt your crusade against a growing proportion of 
Linux, Mac, and Windows users that prefer the flexibility of Mozilla? I fail 
to understand why you cant cope with using existing standards to make your 
site available to all your customers, including customers covered by the 
various accessability laws in force in the UK.
