This would at least ged rid of all the JavaScript, Flash and fancy slow-loading graphics.
Presently, using a standards-compliant Web browser (ex. Mozilla or Galeon under Linux), the site of the French railways (SNCF) is almost useless for reservations. With the Minitel, speed on this site is OK (paying service !), but functionality is low (ex. I don't know how to make simultaneous full- and reduced-fare reservations).
