Yep, in IE 5.5 it looks peachy.

And they can make the up/down arrows work in even older browsers by using document.images instead of document.getElementById.
And rightfully so!

I would love to see more websites offering a no-frills version for older browsers, mobile browsers, smaller screens, etc.

Once I know that a site provides a specific value to me I really don't care about design and usability anymore.

That seems to be the goal of the Universal ie6 [0] project, albiet for ie6!
