Thanks for the ipaq forum, offroadgeek. I like the overall layout - much more clean.
Cheers,

Hi all,

today I found out the forums have been shuffled around a bit. So far I'm not sure whether or not I like it but the

General Forums > OS Support and Discussion

group should surely be renamed to

General Forums > Desktop OS Support and Discussion

or, even better,

General Forums > Desktop Operating Systems Issues

At present, one doesn't even know whether OS means "operating system" or "open source" until one looks at individual forum names. That's a usability no-no.

Just my $0.02.

2 votes for a messy look, 7,238 for a clean look

all jokes aside, I'll see if I can have a theme that displays the forum in the old manner... that way people can just choose which theme they like best.
