Here's a power tip if you're in Windows, start Chrome with the --enable-vertical-tabs parameter. It's experimental so remove any custom skins before you do it.
I always thought the point of the Asus Eee was a cheap laptop you could just throw in your bag and take to a coffee shop without freaking out about breaking it (ie. carrying a $2000 laptop in your bag). Or maybe a beginner laptop for kids. I can't see why someone would want to use it as their primary laptop. The small keyboard would give you bad wrist problems in a matter of months.
I don't like the direction of the Asus Eee laptops now. I was thinking they were trying to introduce an ultra-portable, ultra-inexpensive laptop. I'm seeing new models popping up for $599 and $699? Obviously turning in to "just another laptop."
Where is the ultra-compact, wifi, durable $200-$250 laptop we're all clamoring for?
The results look the same as they always have... There's just a new nav bar in the very top of the search results to toggle between news, videos, etc.... And that isn't even persistent on every page, which is utterly annoying... So if I'm searching web results and I click the nav to go over to "News" for instance, the nav is GONE!! Lame.

Well, the problem with The Internet today is anyone can put a very compelling and persuasive website together to claim anything they want to claim. Many people don't recall that Steorn is a former e-business company that saw its market vanish during the dot.com bust. It stands to reason that Steorn has re-tooled as a Web marketing company, and is using the "free energy" promotion as a platform to show future clients how it can leverage print advertising and a slick Web site to promote their products and ideas. If so, it's a pretty brilliant strategy.
When you click on, say, "Images" on the left of the search results, you see the images, but then the sidebar is gone.... You should be able to click on Images, then Groups, then back to Web without it taking away your sidebar. It breaks the paradigm. But perhaps that's due for this being a beta thing.
Actually, part of it *IS* the age. People who age without exercising the analytical regions of their brain will begin to lose the ability to think in the way necessary to operate a piece of technology. It's a natural process of brain degredation attributed to lack of 'creative' usage, being locked into a daily routine, etc, etc.
The brain is just like the physical muscles in our body. If you don't use it, you lose it.

Very much looking forward to similar tests running on Mac OSX. Webkit -vs- Firefox3 -vs- Opera -vs- Safari, etc... So far FF3 on the Mac has been A
Anyone have any luck getting this to work on a Treo 700p? The update doesn't seem to be applying to mine :(
Agreed. I do hope I'm able to log in through Thunderbird and see all my labels represented as folders....
And vice versa. If I create a folder in Thunderbird and move email in to it, this should create a label within Gmail.
Well, I am on Windows, for better or for worse. There are a few i really like.
1. Total Commander - A super-fast and powerful file manager.
2. UltraEdit - A text editor.
3. MiniAim - a 74k AIM client.
Uh, they're not the Wachowski "Brothers" anymore. One of them had a sex change and is now a woman.
Seriously.

Now all they need is a web-enabled database solution.... That's a tricky one.
in other words: "I'm getting off this sinking ship while i still can."

Quite a paradox :(
They can't be disproved any more so than they can be proven.
How can there be voter fraud if the Democrats are winning?
FYI, Cocaine is psychologically addictive, not physiologically.
Ahhhhhhh, you just gotta love competition!!

That's great and all, aside from the fact that it's built upon Internet Explorer.
Nice. I bet this settles out of court for millions. FoxCorp can surely afford it. Stupid myspace... I hate that site.

i'm pretty sure it has something to do with those numbers in Lost...
These people OBVIOUSLY never saw Doom! A cinematic masterpiece!
