I agree , it does depend on the target audience.
Although i do think that the limits should be pushed a bit in the right circumstance. If no one was to make anything that required broadband connection, there would be little motivation for people to move to it.
Compatibility has a similar issue. make is as compatible as you can but I don't think it should hinder your creativity or concept 9unless of course you are using the very latest browser technology) If everyone designed for 3.0 browsers, there would be less motivation for users to upgrade.
Mick does bring up a good point though about broadband in other countries.
I think its a good idea to have a text based site geared for dial-up users, and then another vesion for broadband if it is really needed. Although I am sure many clients do not have the budget for this.
