I would point out that not everyone who can redesign a web-page can
write code for firewire support, though.  (^&  Programming is not
everyone's forte, nor should it be.  But I do agree with your points
about the existing quality of the web site and hope that they are borne
in mind by any eager web-(re-)designers.
