@B’dum: Actually, they haven’t made me anything since August, so I do have a right to diss them slightly :) And until I reach $100 and they actually pay me, technically I haven’t earned anything…

@AdjustantReflex: Lazy lump!

I suspect at home that will be a different case. Actually it's quite a relief as I'd already got 10 tabs open and suspected I might have to close them all down like Chris.

Nice and simple. Although I want a darker theme, the default one is not all that bad. Hm, I actually like the color scheme. Nice and simple.

I’d just like it to be green to go with all the Windows Live stuff!

I quite like it, I haven't had any major difficulties, the only problem I notice is the URL not wrapping sometimes, so they spill onto adjacent columns. Other than that, it's fast and lightweight. It'll be interesting to see if their much touted multi-threadedness and sandboxing makes a real difference. Also, I'm using it on Vista and it looks sleeeeek. Haven't seen the XP look yet.
