  • Yes, but even more impressive is the debut of Unbreakable Linux from Oracle, the most wonderful thing ever.

  • I don't particularly like Firefox 2.0. Desktop integration with KDE has become even worse and on restoring a session it tells me that it exited unexpectedly because I logged off before. No way of switching that off, even if restore session option is disabled.

  • The only thing I didn't like is that the session manager plugin isn't updated. Supposedly, firefox 2 has built-in session restore, but it is not nearly as full-featured as the plugin.

    With the real session manager plugin, I could be doing research on some topic with a dozen tabs open and multiple windows...and then go to tools > Session Manager > Save Session, so I could resume another time. That is highly convenient for school work!

    A standard in Opera. It even saves the back and forward history.

  • Heh. Browser war! Firefox will probably stay my standard because it does what I want it to do. IE7 isn't anything special, and since the IE users have lost the ease of installation bonus...

  • I don't think bookmark all tabs is the same thing.

    Re: opera.. does its built-in session manager have the options that I mentioned above, where you can manually save and restore sessions, and it saves every tab and every window that you have open?

    I haven't really looked, but I don't think the FF plugin for session manager stores the back and forward history. That is pretty cool.

  • Firewhat? DOH i'm still waiting for IceDove in debian :P Or better for IceApe as i always liked the suite more (faster, smaller and just better for me) then firefox but debian did not switch over to seamonkey and the suite was really old.. Hope this will change with iceape.
