June 20, 1997 If you have ever visited EveryMac.com before, you probably already have noticed many changes. EveryMac.com has been redesigned to be more attractive, easier-to-use, and to download much faster than before. It also gives more categories of information on each Macintosh and MacOS-Compatible. Additions & Changes Added a new "grayscale database look-and-feel" that should make the information easier to locate and easier to read. As Apple would say "enhance the visual cues". Added new, fast downloading and easy-to-read tables for the "By Manufacturer" and "By Processor" pages to replace the previous image maps. Added great new navigational icons from the Chromium Au Kaleidoscope scheme that are intended to further the "light MacOS 8" feeling.
