ATOT frontpage gets more and more cluttered, CPU requirements increased.

WOW!! The ATOT frontpage keeps getting more and more cluttered every day, and requiring more and more CPU.

It reminds me of the old days when I used to visit Tomshardware and then it became a cluttered mess and I moved on to ATOT. Now it seems ATOT is undergoing the same level of decay. whats going on?

Looks like I'll have to overclock my cpu even more to cope 🙁

WTF is the "ATOT Front Page"? Are you sure you know what you're talking about? Do you know what "ATOT" stands for?

The fact that AT continues to employ Jason Mick tells you all you need to know about their commitment to quality.

I was thinking the same thing

Do you mean the AT homepage OP? It has nothing to do with ATOT...

Takes ~0.1 seconds to load on my 11 year old Pentium M 800MHz. 😀

The front page is about the same as it's always been. Sure it's not your browser?

I don't think he's "employed" by AT is he? He just operates DT, which to my understanding, has nothing to do directly with AT anymore. And for that matter DT is a dead bird anyways.

I assume he meant the AT homepage. That being said, it loads perfectly fine for me on pretty much any device I try.

Why? I don't know who that is.

anandtech got sold and the new owners are getting their money back out of it.

The front page today, looks almost identical to the frontpage of 2 years ago:

Would you prefer that they employ Masher2?

What are you talking about? On a 2,208,640 square pixel area at the top of the page (ie: first loaded), around 674,997 square pixels were not filled by ads, and may have some sort of content, borders, or spacing. That's almost 675,000 square pixels of non-ad space!!!!
