I've been ussing FF for a while, yeah it sucks the life out of your mem, but i've gotten to like it. IE7 is ok, just donwloaded it last night, only messed with it for a few mins.. I downloaded FF 2.0 the otherday but like the skins i use wasn't compatible yet with 2.0 so i perverted back to 1.5

one difference is that the tab closing button is on each tab instead of one on the right side for all tabs. that's what my coworker told me.

Yeah cause like, I went to the apple store this one time, and OMG the graphics and resolution was awesome, plus, like the way MAC OS was set up was like pretty cool too... So like I was fiddling around with it and I was like, this looked way better than the apples I remember back in the day...


So yeah... I dunno...
