Very, very few dimensions should be relative.  The only dimension which
works across all the broken versions of IE is px.

I for one hate reading sites where the lines are extremely long, there
have been many studies which show that long lines are much harder to
read.  Implementing true columns (like a newpaper) is difficult.

There has to be some tweaking of the style sheets to make everything
look right, but all in all the design of the new site looks good.
