LinuxPPC unveils its new web site
Shiny new design features retro-techno theme and high-tech engine

LinuxPPC Inc., developers of the most popular version of Linux for PowerPC
computers, has unveiled its new web site. Designed by John Grantham, of
MacLinux fame, and designer of Loki Entertainment Software's web site.
Running on the Apache web server and the PHP3 system, the new site is 100%
buzzword compliant, and visually stunning. Grantham designed both the
retro-Americana theme, and the backend that drives the site's dynamic
content.

While optimized for the current generation of web browsers, the site
doesn't exclude older browsers. It is compatible text-only browsers such
as Lynx, and the 3.0-series Netscape and Internet Explorer browsers. This
was achieved through careful design on Grantham's part, which paid off in
the end: the new site should be not only viewable, but useable, with any
browser.

LinuxPPC's Jason Haas is thrilled with the new site. "It quite simply
rocks," he stated. "John Grantham's work is top notch. We're in love with
the new site."
