IBM web new look!!

[I get Taurens]

I love the new look of the IBM web, they should have done it a long time ago, the new one looks much more professional, new one: 4.5/5 stars. maybe it's just me who cares

Wow. I love its blue-black color. And it's much faster too. Bill, I guess it's time for a new Thinkpads.com look.

[censored]! So much better than the old site... ARGHHH makes me want to change the design for Thinkpads.com now... must resist.

Heh... the mockups which had the "Napster girl" as the hero was better than Palmisano's mug But the big thing is not the design, but the new "Task based navigation". There's some hardcore search technology hiding behind those text links.

Personally I'm not a big fan of the design. It's a bit like "Hey IBM, the 90's wants its 'look of the future' back". I don't know why most people equate flat, boring, and monochromatic with futuristic, clean and stylish.

Reminds me of Novell's site.

"I don't know why most people equate flat, boring, and monochromatic with futuristic, clean and stylish."

Perhaps because monochromatic tends to be eye appealing while multi colors tends to be busy and eye confusing, if the colors are not properly selected, and as a Florida registered Architect, I know how difficult it is to properly select colors. Most get it wrong every time.
