Hi,
I registered just recently, though I have been visiting your site for a while now. Ofcourse I love badminton and your site is one of the best. However, I do have a beef - Why only Word for articles? Many of us dont have Word - though many think so, it really is NOT FREE - Word alone costs between $80 -$100 and Office is about $200. Though it is easy to copy from the "office" - it is actually illegal to do so.
Also, many companies will NOT allow a download of DOC, EXE, PIF and many other formats - (ours is one such).
I request that atleast a Text version (sans graphics) of the articles be also provided or a PDF version including graphics.
As a example, here is an article I tried to access:
http://www.badders.com/docs/mdhthought.doc
As more people move away from Microsoft products due to problems with virus' and cost - please try to accomodate us.
Thank you
Alex
