New Cassini website... very slow!

I thought Id have a look at any new cassini images, and I see the website has had a makeover, but gee nothing seems to work. After several tries and 5 minutes waiting I finally got the press images page to come up, and cant view the raw images pages at all. I dunno what speed internet link one needs to view the site but it is as slow as tar on my Internode 1500k/256k link. I tried it both on IE7 and Firefox and no luck. The site seems so bulky with flash movies and stuff trying to load when I go to the main page.

Note, Im running Vista 64 with 8gb DR3 ram on a quadcore cpu, 1/2 gig video, all latest windows updates,so I dont think my systems at fault.
