Yeah, I wouldn't touch web boards until I got off dial-up, as even 3-4
years ago, websites were moving toward more graphic intensive sites,
including many boards.
But with the proliferation of high-speed internet options, text-based
stuff just doesn't cut it for many people, even if it remains, as you
said, easier and quicker. :)
