Not bad, this demo. They have a nice layout. At 1st I thought some of the screen displays were small, however I found that they can be enlarged. I also found that you can even move the windows around. I wonder if it will be able to handle the demand from online users.
DGT might be on to something here ....
I think they used AJAX to built this, anyone have any ideas on this?
