thanks Bill!
If you all look at the below link for Simonton and choose the 5500, the 9800, and the Platimum, and then compare them, I can barely see any difference, except that the 9800 doesn't have a Spacer System (how do they do that - magnets?), and few other minor-sounding things.
(Assuming that you are correct Bill) how come Simonton doesn't make that big difference clear on their website? Just looking at that website, if a salesman tried to sell me the 9800 vs the 5500 I might be prone to think he is trying to pull the wool over my windows. Their website doesn't even give an idea which series costs more.
I just can't understand how companies now days don't have better websites with more information. I believe that a great website does a great sales job to a consumer. (I always appreciated the old Sears method of labelling their lines Good, Better, Best.) Simonton's website is pretty good. Schuco's website is pretty bad. If I bought Schuco windows, I sure couldn't use that website to convince any of my neighbors that I got a great window. I could barely even convince them that Schuco made windows. I believe that great companies should have great websites - they are almost synonymous to me.
