Not only that, they deleted all the previous links to downloads and support docs.

Maybe they could put up a wordpress page until the current site is functional?
If you still have the old links bookmarked just add the numeral 3 after the www part of the url. I.e.: www3 instead of just www. Here's some stuff I posted in an earlier thread:

Doesn't the fact that we have to refer back to the original Digi site to get the info that we are looking for say something about the state of affairs with Avid at this point?

It is without a DOUBT the single worst corporate website I have ever seen.

Just now, I need to find the Mac Structure 1.1 installer. 20 minutes later and I'm no closer.

Search Structure on the site for downloads, and it shows me the 1.05 one, not what I want. Go to the structure info pages. Not only does it not have ANY links to the download page (how friggen hard would THAT have been, the old site had it!) but the pages don't even tell you what the current version is.

And in the download search results, nothing is even SORTED, so at a glance on any search, it's nearly impossible to tell what is the 'current' version.

Unreal.

I mean, Digi, is ANYONE doing anything about this? Months ago we all told you what a complete and utter disaster the new site was, and you said 'we're on it'. Is it true? Is anyone rethinking it at all?

Epic Fail is right....

So frustrating.
