F*@# Internet Explorer, It's Time for CSS

This site is well overdue for a redesign. The cobwebs are everywhere, in the form of <table>'s. It's about time I stopped using tables for layout. My latest project, a website for Golfi Rustproofing, marks the end of tables based design for me. Starting with the Golfi website, I am abandoning tables. Naturally, Internet Explorer mangles the CSS layout that works like a charm in every other browser. I'll deal with it, as everone must, and find workarounds to accomodate it. What else can one do? Internet Explorer is a terrible browser that nevertheless, most people use.

In other news, this site has been moved onto a new server. After serving reliably for over two years, the 9 year old P166 that hosted this website was showing signs of possible impending hardware failure. I have replaced the old workhorse with a somewhat less old PIII 550MHz 128MB.
