Amazon.com has redesigned. It looks pretty, but I am a little disappointed they didn’t modernize a little. I am sure they had their reasons, but I think there is no excuse for using tables for layout anymore. Also they really could improve performance, the signed in home page takes around 6 seconds to load. Its understandable with so many images and somewhat uncachable custom page that performance is difficult. But they could at least try concatenating som js and css files. And I would bet getting rid of tables would reduce the file size.
