    From a client's perspective I think it comes down to the level of support you provide.

    For a prototype you specify the browser level compliance and extent of the functionality (happy path all the way to fully dynamic).

    When delivering a product the client usually dictates the browser level compliance and full functionality is assumed.

    Its a good point, I think there are two issues you are brining up: 1. Should the concept of a "fold" exist 2. IF one is True, then can we call it something more applicable.

    I think the notion of a "fold" isn't an issue as it previously was. Most people know to scroll a page. But there are some patterns that inform the user that there is more content on a page. Specifically, if you have a horizontal section that spans the entire width of a page at the bottom of a viewable page, then that could be perceived as the end. However, if you break up that strong horizontal with a column then it becomes less of an issue.

    As for what to call the "fold" how about defining the viewable section as the Viewport?

    Great setup experience, I did notice that my computer unlocked when I dropped (and not far) my onto my desk it unlocked. I did also notice you have to slow down your knock a bit. But I had no qualms about throwing down the 4 bucks to check it out.
