Yay I reached the end of the thread!! woohoo... but totally in shock my issue isn't covered..
...How do I change the colour of the attribute comment?...(bright red at the moment)
no wonder its not been covered...its pretty plain obvious

in your template stylrsheet.css change the attributes under

/* product_info attribute comments */

.ProductInfoComments, TD.ProductInfoComments, SPAN.ProductInfoComments {
color: blahblahblah

doh! MUST OPEN EYES AND READ rather than thinking i'm looking at gibberish
