*System Information
Windows 10 and GeForce graphics card

Blender Version
Broken: (none yet!)
Worked: (not yet!)

I try to download the installer and get redirected to the development fund page. Gimme a break! I'd like to USE the program before I donate to it

Exact steps for others to reproduce the error
Gee, just click on the download Blender 2.74 and see what happens...

… Download button on main page links me to download page (http://www.blender.org/download/)? There is a small 'donate' box on the side of this page, but it’s not the donation page.

@fsiddi something seems slightly broken on download page though, it used to immediately show the option matching one’s OS, now for me it shows nothing, have to click on 'Windows' or 'GNU/Linux' to get the actual download mirror links.

Sorry, missed this before.

The Download Blender 2.74 link on the frontpage always linked to /download, never to donate. It's hardcoded that way even so there's no way it could have changed.

@mont29, yeah I'm also getting Windows (while I'm on Linux), then sometimes I get Linux, it seems to be related to caches. I have plans on redesigning this to make it simpler and show all links, no fancy tabs otherwise we run into these issues.
