   It's a way for them to "justify" things; "Your page doesn't rank as high in   
   search results as Wikipedia because.. uh... your page loads too slowly."

   Part of the issue is their priorities. Could it be that the internet is still   
   slow in India? So they need "graphics acceleration" because "web pages load   
   too slowly?" I doubt it, but it does make me wonder if their developers live   
   in their moms' basements, and mom can't afford broadband so their using   
   dial-up. lol   
      
    RL> So now I think that they are incompetent AND evil.   
      
   This is a much more likely scenario.
