Yes, I kind of had to do it.  The point of this site's design was always to look as much like the actual Microsoft website as possible, and when it launched in 1999, it did a great job of it.  Problem is, they changed their design a while back, and I only just now got around to changing this one to match.

I kinda expected there would be mixed reactions to the design change, but you can't please everyone.  Other details (such as the font weight and color of headers, etc.) will change shortly, too, since the site looks too . . . *blue* with the new header.    (http://tongue.gif)
