The data for 1Mb web pages is simply bogus. If you have stats, please
show 'em. Otherwise, don't chime in with non-applicable factoids...

>1Mb pages are almost non-existant on the Web.

It's not that they are totallynon-existant, it's that's no one would bother
waiting for them to download. If the viewer is warned beforehand, they
have the *option* of waiting for a bulky file.

It's all in the content; if I tell you you will be seeing something cool,
and perhaps give you a preview you may wait for the show.

The Web is *NOT* VRML...let's please keep the two classes distinct.
