Whispers: I don't like tabs.

OMG! What don't you like? I thought tabbed browsing was god's
special gift to me. I first had it with the Mozilla of old and I was
still on dial up. Go to a site, while the graphics rich page loads -
go to another and start loading it. Go back to site #1 and it's done.
Life was good and I didn't hate dial up. I LOVE tabbed browsing even
now. Why would you want all those windows open when you can just have
tabs? I have enough programs open to tile my screen as it is.

:)


Eerm, I liked looking down and seeing exactly what is open. Yeah,
it can get a bit crowded though. I have 5 Seamonkey windows
open, not including the newsgroup and composition windows. Plus
email open. I can place my cursor over each window and see what's
there.... I dunno. Maybe it's that I'm a dino--or it is a
function of how one's mind works or doesn't work.

I don't understand the difference between what you're doing and
tabbing. Tabs are neater too. They don't hop all over the place and
cover up each other like windows do. Tabs are neatly labeled so you
don't have to guess what's there either. Just look at the tab and you
know what you have! I also like hyperlinks to open in new tabs.
