not to mention that in FF the whole page is pushed to the right for one small search box halfway down the homepage.
Edit: This was fixed in the 30 min. since I wrote a spite filled e-mail to their webmaster

It's been awhile since I bought from Newegg. No real need and no hot deals for impulse purchase.

If you get into the search area for a particular type of hardware, click on power search. You'll get better search criteria there. I've been hoping for that forever now (and if it existed before I never found it :().

Everyone complains when a place like this changes, but a month from now no one will care. The next time they change everyone will bitch and say this design was better. :roll:

LOL! A place changes it's look and people come unhinged! Not to mention that the place has a better search function and is easier to navigate now.....just goes to prove people are afraid of change and the unknown....

The only gripe I have that it runs horribly slow for me. The old version was quick but this seems to be coded bad. Slow response, etc.

The new search function, the compare feature and the rollover navigation is nice but the design is an eyesore, once I get used to it it'll be ok but right nows its really strange.

You on dialup? Everything seems quicker for me. I've been using it for a few weeks now though and I guess I'm weird, but I like the looks.......

It will take some getting used to, I liked it the old way better for now, but may change my mind once I get used to it.

I agree. How many of you got the beta testing e-mails? I checked out both beta sites and complained to them both times. I guess that didn't do much good :(

No, I'm experiencing the lag too, and it has nothing to do with connection speed. The page itself loads just as fast as before, but the menus sluggishly appear, the links don't react as quickly (highlighting), and the page lags as I scroll up and down.

cobalt, do you have an ATI card? I've noticed that my slower nVidia machines are significantly less laggy on websites than my 9800 Pro is.

That's really odd.....I just went there before posting this and randomly just clicked on menus/links and it is really fast....no scroll lag....figured it was my connection. If it's rendering.....I've got an X800XT so it must not be an ATI issue unless it's an older generation issue.....

Change is not good when it a change for the worse.

One thing I don't like is when clicking on say "video cards" I longer see a brand selection. I must know the brand and type it in or browse though thousands of cards. Same for every major catagory. It's a time killer.

I did'nt like much the last site over the previous, now it's even worse. Everytime getting more fluffy and harder to navigate. Ease of use was tyhe main reason I shopped new egg. Thier prices sure arnt superior or thier CS. Mwave has them beat on both counts. Monarch had them beat on price most of the time.
