Indeed. I'll spare the huge rant of dos and don't because you all know it. 
I've tried to look stuff up (and indeed order) on the Argos stite before 
and been forced to give up and go down the road to the actual store.

The one site that I regularly would like to use but can't is Odeon's 
(http://www.odeon.co.uk/. If I want to look up films, check availability, 
or book tickets I need to either get my information second hand via 
another site, spend time/money going down there or phoning them, or reboot 
to Windows and use IE. No other [broken] site am I bothered enough to do 
this for. I've emailed them in the past pointing out how not only are they 
using IE-only Javascript where standard compliant stuff can work perfectly 
well, but that there are several navigation issues with the site which 
make it hard or confusing to use. I got a response saying that they plan 
to redesign early next year (IIRC) and will look at "other browsers" then. 
Feel free to let info at Odeonuk.com know you're not happy with this either.

Cheers
