eh, well the memory usage seems better slightly. i haven't been using it long enough to build up a massive amount of tabs/pages. but when minimized it does release memory rather quickly, whereas firefox gives up nothin. little things are bothering me, i think i'm too used to firefox. like when i put folders of shortcutts at the top bar, when you click on them in firefox the bookmarks drop straight down in a list, easy to quick navigate down, and scrollable too. in opera it goes off to the side first before the drop down menu, annoying, and it doesn't scroll for lists of bookmarks that are too long. not having history/bookmarks as side panels is annoying too. i also keep reaching for the little x button on the right top corner for closing tabs like with firefox, but theres a recycling bin here instead

having x's on each tab makes it easy to close things accidentally
is there a recycling bin thing for firefox? i like the concept, not the location.
