Firefox 3.7 embraces Aero, offering the translucent glass appearance. It also appear to mimic IE8 somewhat by relocating menus away from the standard toolbar position. Thoughts?

I'd love to change the world, but they won't give me the source code.

Joe, there's an excellent mouse gestures plugin for FF that I've been using for months, just in case you weren't aware.

I like how to top bar that holds the navigation buttons, the tabs and the menus would be smaller giving more space to the presentation. I really dislike the fact that the menus would be in their standard position like I"m used to though...

Never tried yet but the 3.5 version seems to be a bit slower in opening the browser page. Some Information I get is that Opera is more faster but still I need to try it.

I think Chrome is faster at everything...

I agree Chrome is faster than mozilla and internet explorer. On the other hand, mozilla is slow for me but i have to use it as chrome does not offer the plugins that mozilla has..

That looks good, I am still using the version 3.0.13. The 3.5 doesn't support RoboForm password manager, which I can't live without.
