I noticed that earlier too -- after reading about the redesign in a
newsgroup and running the page through the "trust but verify" gauntlet.


Actually, it's a well-formedness problem: there's a stand-alone <p> near
the bottom.  Remove that and the page is well-formed (and valid).
Possibly something their Vignette server (the biggest tag chunks blower
on the planet) coughed up.  The second page is fine, BTW.

The Opera site has just been completely redesigned as well: XHTML 1
Strict + CSS.
