Shopping in ancient societies

Shopping can be traced back to many civilisations in history. In ancient Rome, there was Trajan's Market with tabernas that served as retailing units. Shopping lists are known to be used by Romans as one was discovered by Hadrian's wall dated back to 75–125 AD and written for a soldier.

What is a good shopping cart software to use?
Q. I know there are a lot of shopping carts out there. Here is the deal. 1) I already have a web site and a host. 2) I have a paypal account. I am going to use paypal to accept credit cards. I just need a low cost shopping cart software that has shipping options, taxes, old / new product prices, unlimited products and looks good and not cheap looking. I do not know html. I use Frontpage 2003 to build my web site. I just need a shopping cart software that will have a nice looking format already setup to add my products. Note: I am not offering files to download. I am selling Herbailfe products. If you are aware of someone already having a shopping cart setup for these products and willing to hook me up, then please let me know.

What is the easiest shopping cart software for a small business web site?
Q. Are you a mid level web designer? I need a suggestion for an affordable and simple shopping cart. Easiest to use, install, maintain, etc. I'm a graphics person and know some HTML and JAVA script coding but not PHP. Used PayPal before, so need something a little more robust. Thanks for reading!

Q. What specs do I look for, such as what kind of battery or bluetooth specs when shopping for a phone.
