"Tabbed Browsing
Screw that. It will only confuse basic users, so instead of making it an option, we just didn't implement it at all. Oh wait... there goes our browser market share. Our next release will have tabs. "

wrong. Tabbed browsing is awesome. I use it daily. It's better than having a billion windows open.

Tabbed browsing is great.

Let's say you're reading Fark, Google News, Slashdot, or some such shit.

You open all the links in one window until you get down to the part you've already read, then close read close read close all in one window till there ain't none leff.

I love when nerds dorks argue about personal preferences.

Obviously MOST people like tabbed browsing seeing that IE is coming out with a shitty implementation.

Not for me.

I prefer tabbed browsing.

And fuck all your arguments about the task bar being analogous to a tabbed browser

Cuz nothing is gonna change my preference.

tabbed browsing is > taskbar because I usually have a billion things open at one time anyway. Saves my taskbar for other things.

And it seems like Microsoft doesn't understand the inner workings of their own OS either. That's why so many spyware programs took advantage of the numerous security holes in IE.

They just can't allow complete and total infiltration by hackers, spyware, and adware like IE can.
