This site is still up after 25 years, if you can believe that.

      It certainly wasn’t back when this camera was new. Also, some other company TLDs…

        ICANN,
        You don’t have to put on the red light
        Those days are over
        You don’t have to sell your TLDs to the night

    That is one page on the Sharp website. The Sharp website still being up is not surprising. That product page still being there means that Sharp never deleted it and didn’t change whatever engine they use for their site.
