It's available from the regular version of the page too--just scroll to the bottom like you do on the cache:

Not for me. This 'trick' stopped working for me about a month ago, so now I have to use the cache links.

Interestingly it seems to be based on a referrer. It worked when I clicked the link from Google, not when I clicked it from here. Why are these clowns still in Google's index anyways, cloaking isn't allowed.

No, it doesn't work. Real answers appear in "collapsed" form, so they are not visible.

It's contingent on a Google referrer. They should be removed from the index.

Compare these:

  curl -e http://www.experts-exchange.com/OS/Microsoft_Operating_Systems/Windows/XP/Q_21692879.html?qid=21692879 > without_google.html

  curl -e http://www.google.com http://www.experts-exchange.com/OS/Microsoft_Operating_Systems/Windows/XP/Q_21692879.html?qid=21692879 > with_google.html
