Running it on a test pc and it's excellent in my opinion. I haven't checked
to see if the bookmarks have been improved (previous versions held this data
in some weird non open-source format for some bizarre reason). Just being
able to drag and drop tabs is excellent.

Won't be going near my main pc until I have the time to back up first but I
need it, 1.07 hasn't impressed me that much, too many crashes or browser
lock-up, particularly when I've got more than 5 tabs open :(
