The Notebook Review forums were hosted by TechTarget, who shut down them down on January 31, 2022. This static read-only archive was pulled by NBR forum users between January 20 and January 31, 2022, in an effort to make sure that the valuable technical information that had been posted on the forums is preserved. For current discussions, many NBR forum users moved over to NotebookTalk.net after the shutdown.

    ...anyone else seeing a new problem with how the forum is formatting posts that include bullet lists? I've checked pages using the latest versions of both Firefox and IE, but both are rendering the pages the same (see attached for a sample snippet).

    In addition to the problem being noticeable here, it is also apparent in the following threads (especially the first one):


    It is making some instruction lists hard to read.

    Is there anyone at NBR who would be able to look at this issue and fix it? As can be seen below, repeated attempts to point out the problem in the noted bug report thread over the past three months haven't changed anything.

    This problem makes the CF-18 Windows 7 install instructions unnecessarily more difficult to read and follow, and I'm sure there are other threads that would benefit from having this fixed.

    As it hasn't gotten attention in bug report thread, I'm hoping perhaps someone has connections to provide some prodding. Thanks in advance to whoever is able to address this....

    I am sorry but they have several forums that they manage and it looks to me like it's been put on the back burner

    Font size is messed up still after 2 months of adding the new style to the forum ,which added nothing of value ,except increasing the advertizing

    At this point I recommend the following-
    Bottom right on this web page
    Change new style to either
    Notebook review style , or V bulletin default style and the issue is resoved
    I use V bulletin default style
