Review Title: eyesore of a layout, but wonderfully written articles.

I’m a computer freak, and I everything related to computers, thus I was intrigued by this site. My first impression about this website is that it is very informative, but somewhat messy. Despite the fact that the articles are very interesting and readable, the fact remains that the site is, on a scale of 1-10, ranks at #5 on my “Top Eyesore List”.
While it is certainly not as big an eyesore as other websites are, it does need improvement. The sidebar is okay, the images are okay, the colors are okay. But what made it a big eyesore for me was the fact that it used Times New Roman as its font. I had realized long before that Times New Roman on a website is a total turn-off, and makes the thing look unprofessional. Either my computer does not have the fonts the webmaster is using, or he just likes Times New Roman.
But on the whole, the website’s strengths are its informativeness, and its articles’ readability, engaging style and personal tone make it a good read, and so, despite the sloppiness, I still give the site 4 stars. : )

Times New Roman font is the default font for Front Page. I tested my site with Firefox, Netscape, IE 6, and IE 7 and did not see any probmes.
However if you have problems with the font I will change it to Book Antiqua which I use for my catalog of parts.
