Thanks for the heads up on the web-page problems. I updated the NMS Getting Started page and restored the sample code and made sure it was up to date. It may take a day or so for the update to be propagated, though. Try refreshing the page later today, or possibly by tomorrow. I don't know what the regeneration schedule is for the website.
