I'm running WinXP/SP2 and FF2.0.0.3 at 1024 x 768 on a 17" monitor.

Similar to what Lori said, there is a lag when the left column draws, but 
otherwise, everything stays put...until one bump up in font size causes the 
last nav item to drop down one line, which shoves the whole content off the 
right side of the page. This even happens if I increase the view port to 
1280 x 1024. Reducing the font size does not break the layout.

The drop down menu rendering seems a tag slow. Also, the Publication links 
open .pdf's without warning and both the Publication and Links links 
unexpectedly open a new window. IMO (only) the former is simply annoying, 
the latter is bad behavior.

Regardless, my initial impression of the site when first opened is that it 
is visually pleasing and well laid out.

Cheers,

Peter
