“Beautiful. Heavy. Worth it, apparently.”

Pica's take. Apple's homepage is a gallery: huge images, perfect type, and six megabytes of product photography. The locks are superb and the guest list is nearly empty. It is slower than it looks, which is hard, because it looks very fast.

How we grade. Four checks, weighted equally: speed timed by our own browser, a security look from the outside, public reputation signals, and the network the site lives on. A look from the outside is not a server audit.
