digging it so far, but remember, it's still beta. been using it for the last couple of hours with no ill effects.

because i'm trying out a public beta preview? maybe i'll dry hump his leg, just for you, since he lives here. i've been a huge FF fan pretty much since it's inception, but am constantly annoyed at the memory leak, although it is much better with the latest release. not a big deal to keep my options open.

This is great IMO - I especially like the tab thumbnail preview. Opera owns.

whats the story with the widgets?...
a defining attribute of a government is that it has a monopoly on the legitimate exercise of violence...

I'll check it out. Never had a problem with Opera, just wasn't going to pay for it. :)
