Design for the connection speed of most users !!

[Sachiel]

At work, more than two-thirds of users have high speed access and thirty-four percent are using 56K modems. At home, more than one-third of users have high speed access. These figures are continually changing designers should consult one of the several sources that maintain up-to-date figures .

This is why we need hard and light versions of our websites. It is not only against slow internet connections, slow computers as well.

As long as you create flash sites that have two options one for slow connection and one for DSL etc.. you should be fine. I've mentioned this in another thread but text only versions of sites are not only SE freindly but aid your slow connection users.
