I just DL'ed it this morning... love the tabbed browsing!

I haven't played with it much yet, but I like what I see so far.

One question... how do you change the preferences so that a link opens in a new tab, rather than in a new window?

I think I saw an extension that addresses that.

You also have the usage of the right mouse button and then in the resulting drop down menu you can select whether to open in a new window or a new tab.

Hold the CTRL key then click a link.

Besides ctrl-click, clicking with the mouse wheel also opens a link in a new tab.

Also, see this, and DO IT! if you're on a high-speed connection:

Question:

How can you get Firefox to open up a new tab with the SAME window as what you are viewing in the other window.

IE does this automatically when you create a new window, but Firefox just will make a blank window.
