Jarrett House North: Apple: How to bury an important announcement

Jarrett House North: How to bury an important article about an important announcement that was buried by Apple

Fri, Jul 20, 2001; by Jim Roepcke

A lot of people, Tim Jarrett probably among them, were disappointed in yesterday's How to bury an important announcement article on Jarrett House North. An outdated Aqua theme and a lot of paragraphs were the "highlights".

But my wary eyes pointed out something very important I missed (primarily because I worked until 12:30 AM last night): It's damn near impossible to read the miniscule text on Tim's web site.

Why is this so important?

Someday I'll write a good description of what this article can do for the reader, but unfortunately I couldn't read the whole thing so I don't really know what Tim said.
