May I ask what *browser* version you are using? While I agree that the IETF
Web site ought to work for people with old computers, but generally, one
needs to be using a reasonably modern browser or you are going to have
problems a lot bigger than the IETF Web site not rendering. FWIW, I just
tested the site with modern Firefox, Chrome, and Safari, and it renders fine
