Ok, so I just uploaded and downloaded new themes and extensions. Now, where are the cool "new" features for me to play around with?

Inline spell checker sounds interesting, but I wonder how much bigger that makes the download? Maybe that should have just been an extension, too.

It is actually fairly nice. Reminds me of when I had to use an iBook for a while. You get a little red line under the words that are misspelled. (e.g. "chippewa" "iBook" etc)

One thing I am having to adjust to...

The "Close - X" for individual tabs, is actually in each tab instead of on the far right. Where the X used to be, is now a drop-down arrow to change tabs.

I use an extension called NoScript. Lets me decide what to allow or block in terms of Javascript. I can allow script to run from a web page like Buffettnews, but can block the advertising on the page from running on my computer.

I downloaded it for the Mac. I decided to try it.

Well upon initial usage it's faster than Safari or IE for the Mac

IMO, anything is better than Safari.
