IOIH,
Count me in as one unhappy dude.
Now without Browsemaster, I'll definitely will have to cut down on bookmarked threads. I'm selling every drop of GNET I have. Don't need my money in an inet company who is so out of touch with it's surfers.
Bryan promises the same options we had with Browsemaster. Oh suurrre
Why destroy Classic until that is accomplished?

No , you aren't being a cry~baby, "NEW SI" is---> the total Pits!

Doesn't really make sense to go from "slow" to "slower",
while saying they have been working months on this so-called upgrading!
....They come with this "bland" lay-out ,difficult to read, with totally "lifeless color schematics, and font, which is truly
dismaying.

It isn't even worth the trouble to try to post here intra-day, anymore, the problems are so bad. And after months of shakey performance, with at least a format that was at least a delight to the eyes, and easy to respond too...you get this dull/ muted grey/blue/gold mess,
that is slow as molasses, and a drain on your bandwidth!

**Wonderful to have all these new tools & analytics conveniently placed at our disposal...but a wonder that while
having all this "Raz ma taz"
at your fingertips.... you are once again reduced to the speed & response time of dial~up. And that is totally unacceptable....

But like the "geeky" gods on high, they'll let us know what they are doing about it months from now , probably in the spring, when they are good and ready. But the slowness and
Blaisee' appearance and daily overloads are a joke!

Good Job , GNET, you really fixed this rag...but good! The kind of place where old and retired folks ( with magnifying glasses), can congregate after the markets are closed to check up on their long~term investments... on the weekends. Forget the real~time , it's been turned into a forbidding boggy swamp by day. And trying to post here , is a slow death by "quick~sand" ! LOL!

Ever thought of using ISLD or AKAMI technologies? And get this site on the ball again? C'mon GNET, forget about the bottom line , for once, and spend a little more $dough$ ! "

;-(

One more reason to kiss SI goodbye. This new version sucks!!

So, umm, Greg, why don't you tell us what you really think of the new SI? LOL!

I can't complain since I've been using the "new SI" since it was in Beta. I figured the sooner I get used to it the better since I figured this day would come!

In all seriousness, without changing your screen resolution you can increase the font size your browser uses when looking at SI. For IE it's View, Text Size. Similar for Netscape, I believe.

Anyway, have a good rest of the weekend!
