Cool Baen' Bar Revamped: Now actually usable!
The day we have waited for has finally arrived! Baen's Bar has been revamped, and is now actually usable!

If you are looking for me, I'll be in the Lois McMaster Bujold forum

Super.. Maybe I can finally use the forum. Basically useless with a dialup connection.

it's NOT the connection it was the old code and server. I could not live with it on a 7.1mb connection so don't worry it's your dial-up limiting things. Remember they are pretty much only serving up text which takes nothing in terms of bandwidth. So the slowness was in the design and very dated code for the forum itself.

Thanks, I just went and took a look at it. When they went to the last version I found it so bad that I almost completely stopped using it, and almost completely stopped buying and reading Baen books.

It drove me away.

I'm glad time and effort have gone into it. I was on Baen's Bar YEARS ago, and was sad at its demise

And it is indeed useful, even with a dialup. I'll be taking more advantage of the Baen forums from here on out.
