    a while back i mentioned to shawn about the pages being screwed up at times , and asked him if it was just me .
    he replied that he had been having some issues as well .
    i just had the format problem happen ... before that all was ok ...
    has anyone else experienced this intermittent problem ?

    Sometimes I need to refresh the page 3 or 4 times before it appears correctly.

    Just shake your toughbook 2-3 times with F5 button pressed, and problem solved.

    OOH BOY! It has happened enough that I rarely visit NBR. CHANGE? Should be for the better.
    No improvements seen in a year or more. Just saying.

    Every time I open Firefox and go to NBR, I need to refresh 3 or 4 times before it is readable in the normal format.....
    This is getting old.
