Go figure that in the few days since, they have, so I had an opportunity to check it out. It's not what I would call a huge difference, but I think it' still an improvement over their current website. The top navigation looks sharper and more up-to-date. Once you start scrolling down beyond the main content area and news links, everything else has almost like a widgetized look-and-feel to it, which I'm still torn on, but it's definitely different from the current look.

Maybe others disagree.
