It looks really good. I had no problems with the zooming, it performed well (on a newish MBP).
Thanks for taking this on, it's really coming out well! I have three minor nit-picks, which you are welcome to ignore: 1 - the mouseover popups for the features list are nice, but I only noticed them by accident. It might be worth making them links as well, without changing what they do, just so it's more obvious that they do something. 2 - the headings along the left are nice, but I'd like them more without the brackets. 3 - in those headings and in other headings and captions, you use all-caps. My preference would be for regular capitalization and the headings would still stand out because they're in bold. Again, minor points, and since you're the one doing the work, I'm glad to defer to your judgment. Thanks again, -mike On Sat, Mar 14, 2009 at 7:36 AM, Sven-S.
