    personas is something very cool for firefox its like themes but cooler.
    Personas for Firefox | Dress up your web browser

    if you have a theme selected you need to choose the default one for it too work.

    now you can basically switch the themes on the fly with out restarting.
    when you hover over the persona choice it will switch to it automatically giving you a preview.

    I bet soon sites will be able to theme your browser to match the site.

    Cool, I have firefox but don't use it. I'm using IE7, but wondering if there's any bugs in IR8 or if it's good to go?

    well IE8 is suppose to be faster and more secure then other browsers but i fell in love with firefox and its extensions.

    it feels weird to love a browser lol

    I switched to firefox about a year ago and have learned to hate IE.

    you know linux has made great strides in the past few years, for basic operation browsing listening to music, etc linux works just as good if not better then windows. linux has free software for even more complicated thing. the only time linux wont work is if your company makes you install proprietary software to do your job that doesnt support it

    check out ubuntu or kubuntu(same as ubuntu but with a more windows like interface), its super popular and has a huge community with help online for anything, for newbies or expierenced users.

    ive already decided im not moving to windows 7 unless i start gaming again(unlikely though), after xp i doing ubuntu, i already am seeing a push in my computer science classes to start using it. one teacher required it, since alot of stuff in the career will be done on or with linux
