What sort of access are you using? I'm on satellite, which an increasing 
proportion of sites can't handle.

I've tried five different systems, two varieties of Ubuntu and three of 
Windows, IE 9 and two versions of Firefox, flushed caches, turned 
proxies off and on, all to little avail. Examining the page source 
reveals truncation (which IE made evident, but Firefox hid). Exactly how 
much of the markup downloads varies between systems. SBS is the only 
site where I've seen this particular problem. It's a marvel that the 
browsers display anything at all, given that the end of the files is 
missing.

Looks like I'll just have to mark SBS down as one of the sites that I 
can't access, unless someone can point me to a low-bandwidth version.
