Hi MacNN.

I have to say the new layout looks great, although I'm using the 'headlines + news' layout, as I HATE to click to read each and every news story. But i looks better than the old one..

When that is said - why is the headlines in lower caps?????
It's harder to read this way.. read Apple's HIG...

Keep it up!

At least - it's a reply...

I'm with you on the Caps - sentence case would be good at a minimum... and an argument could be made for title case.

Otherwise, it's a nice clean design.

It seems to me that having so many display options suggests an inherent flaw with the design to begin with, caps or not. But that might be a different thread...

I mentioned the use of downstyle in the main thread discussing the change.
