By golly, you're right. I normally use chrome or opera, so didn't see
it, but I see, opening that link with Firefox on F16, that I have the
same issue. Opening it with chrome is fine.
To add even more confusion, if I (Gasp!) run firefox as root on
fedora 16, I can see the newegg prices, it is only when run as
a plain old user that I can't see the prices (and I have tried
safe mode and making a brand new .mozilla directory, etc - none
of that stuff works). Is some piece of javascript installed with
permissions that only allow root to run it? This is really weird.
