I sincerely apologize to Netscape users that may have visited the site since its inception 2 weeks ago. For some reason, I hadn't managed to look at the site, and see how silly it looked, with Netscape.
All changes to the website should now allow for the Netscape audience to see the true design -- not some hack job produced by a half-blind idiot (this doesn't disqualify me from said definition, however).

Examining the online gaming market today is like make predictions on space flight and time travel from space shuttle launches. But, Yahoo feels that they can make some educated comments. I feel it's a good read, as you a get a glimpse from the outside in at the industry, but it's still no big news flash.
