I have had a quick look and it is impressive.

Check it out here;

It seems pretty slick to me but could be problematic for those on dial-up connections.

Cheers

It might also be problematic for those with slow computers. wink.gif The site loaded quickly over an 8 Mbps connection, but then my browser was unresponsive for 12 seconds while it processed all of that lovely javascript stuff. Yet another site to put in the 'Restricted sites zone' to block javascript (sigh). Fortunately, I rarely visit the HQ portal, but if the other centers adopt this then it may finally motivate me to get a faster machine...
