First I would recommend you look at http://www.ibm.net/ An interface with small GIF map image can be both good looking and efficient. If you do look at that page notice that is pretty speedy (even with my 14.4). I also recommend you drop all the advanced features (Javascript?) you are using on the page which are not widely supported for most browsers. In other browsers, such as OS/2 web explorer when they look at the page it looks pretty bad.
