Looking for good business websites.

Hi!
I am looking to gather visual information/inspiration for a new website I will be making. Does anyone have urls of good business-type websites? Something with a good, clean design and good functionality? I've been looking but it seems to be a rarity...

Thanks,
Julie

I am just looking for visuals and not the fantasy/creative/flashy type. But it could perhaps be business oriented towards communication or finance.

Hahaha.

Website of my employer (recently relaunched to look exactly like our parent company) is quite corporate-ish.

w_ww._nomadi_cs.com (remove underscores, no referrers please)

Code-nazis, I know it's invalid HTML 4.01 Trans. It's not my fault. There are situations out of my control. I did the best I could.

Here's some more I found on CSS Beauty:

Good web design takes into account the coding, even if it's being given to a programmer.

ghetto elvis: I think you are looking at the webdesign business from the wrong angle.

If you client would choose to come back to for maintance, etc, ect you would have to do alot more to change simple bits of text or link colors then say, me who has coded my site in xhtml and css.

And personally if you are planning on making a future in webdesign you are going to fail, this is a ever expanding market and people have the create to ways to create something that would win more clients.

One last thing, you use fireworks, you suck!
