texte = That was my real question actually.I am dealing with my first commerce site and the client is concerned with directing the buyers who do not have 128 bit capable browsers. He had made mention of lowering the requirement and I advised him against it. I just wanted to make sure I was on the right track.Which brings me to the next question, how do most of you deal with that issue? My consideration has been to post a notification in the checkout templates that 128 bit capable browsers are required with links to either MSIE or NN for downloading. Any better ideas? Any unspoken standards?Oddly enough, I develop commercial sites, yet myself, have purchased maybe 3 products online my entire Internet life.
