To Cosmo,

Well yes, I would know exactly what part I wanted if I had it in my hand, identified it in the parts manual and then found it online with a matching part number and a picture, wouldn't I? Yesss... I really really would.

Why the compulsion to avoid the inevitable? e-commerce is here. It's great and it ain't going away. The suppliers who get it right will win the lion's share of the business in the long run. That's all there really is to it. I merely propose that it would be good if they started the migration path now to avoid the rush.

Cheers,

Chris (....evangelising again) (...is that a word?)
