So...what do you all think?
Any and all comments/feedback are appreciated, I'll post more about the new site later tonight/tomorrow morning - I'm just testing out the blog posting functionality right now :)
Take care.

The old front page was much better. It's hard to find anything on the new one.Bozo

I miss the news being on the front page already :/Robert - Tuesday, July 6, 2004 - link
Looks like change for change sake, with no real advantage to the end-user. Hope you are paying a lot for the new look!Anonymous - Tuesday, July 6, 2004 - link
No real comments about the new design. I'll get used to it eventually :-)However, I've been wanting to ask you to at least mention Linux compatibility on your reviews. Drivers, who's working on them, the manufacturer's position re Linux.
It goes without saying that if you could test, I would feel even better.
TIA

I like the look, but I agree with making the reviews more prominent. If I have to click on the "News" page to see the headlines, I can deal with that, I suppose.To KF, #100, all I can say is... you've been coming to Anandtech since Day 1 and you browse the Internet on a 28.8 modem? Wow.

this is one of the worst designs i've ever seen. PLEASE bring back the old layout, but clean up the HTML...someonewhocares - Tuesday, July 6, 2004 - link
1) 9 ads on the homepage, 3 of them identical flash banner ads. I have since uninstalled flash...2) nothing good on the homepage anymore, just a bunch of links and really anoying flash. Yea, it was larger before but it was larger because there was good content. You have made it smaller, but you also made it worthless (thank goodness for RSS)
3) bad HTML coding, not valid HTML ( http://validator.w3.org/check?verbose=1&uri=ht...
4) did I mention the 3 identical anoying flash ads?
5) white background durring articles loads last on the page taking forever waiting for the slow ad servers. :tdown: to black text on grey background.
Until you fix things I am afraid that I will stick to RSS. You had a really nice site before, excellent design, visually appealing... but now ads and poor CSS are destroying things.

The old site had a much cleaner and intuitive interface. This new layout is confusing and not as attractive.~D - Tuesday, July 6, 2004 - link
I liked the old site much better. The front page was much easier to navigate for newer articles. Can you have high and low bandwidth versions of the front page?
