It's a worthwhile site. Fred Sheerrrrrrrrman is as close as you get to a brand name in this area. Though the site isn't as user friendly as the Compududes site, one wouldn't really expect it to be. It's not a site that you go to unless you've got a specific agenda. Still, all in all, a pretty decent site.
Graphics are normal, and the loading is just as fast as most.
Fred has a really useful website. He even has a RealAudio of one of his songs, off key. Fred is another nice guy who makes good listening if investments are your thing. His web site really communicates. The site is well done though and the free info is worth the visit.
