Lynx is absolutely text only, so CSS would have nothing to work on as there are zero graphics, zero pictures, and zero video. This browser is a great way to see just how much information on a web site is really visible to a search engine, though Google, Yahoo, etc., are trying to find ways to read content created by scripts or put in images and in video.

Did you take a look at the source on the Neo pages? There's some embedded CSS and even some embedded JavaScript. Very definitely a work in progress.

I ran the Ubuntu Studio 12.04 Live DVD on my Windows 7 machine and Firefox there brought up the Neo version. So I logged out of FFL on Firefox here where Ubuntu Studio 12.04 is installed and Neo came up for groups. Logged back in and the old site design came up. Hilarious.
