Yep... I've heard of problems with that site from users on old PCs and Linux systems too. Too much flash, updating too fast. WestNet's old site was great, this new one is awful to navigate and brings older systems to their knees. I have no problems with it here (2.2GHz Athlon running Linux) but on the eMac at work and my old-ish laptop it just stops the browser cold. -- Craig Ringer
