I have noticed the site, as we were told, seems a bit clunky and slow right now.

Still, gives me more time to fix up the I7 6700K 24GB Ram 256GB SSD that I found in the street fully working (except for the graphics card). It has a legitimate Windows 7 Ultimate OEM on it which I am currently getting Windows updates up to date in preparation to upgrade to Win 10 Pro
