Do people pass by 'Plain Text Sites'?

This reference people doesn't. Just the opposite.
My default on Netscape 3.0 is to NOT auto-load images. The information
I'm seeking is always in text format. I want to get to a site fast,
determine if it has what I need, retrieve it if it's there, and get out.
The only time graphics prove helpful is when the page is designed such
that you need them to navigate. Obviously, in my judgement, this as
poor webpage design because taking the time to download the graphics is
exactly what I don't want.
I have a 14.8 modem and 486 75khz PC. But even if I had Deep Blue, I'd
still eschew graphics.
