New usability features in Firefox 2.0 that differentiate it from IE 7 include one that will restore the browser to pages where the user was working if a sudden OS restart is required. "If your browser needs a restart or the OS asks you to reboot, losing all of those Web pages and content is pretty disruptive," Beard notes.

At first I was in a quandary as to why this feature would be needed. Then I remembered that before switching to a Mac (from Gateway) I used to have to reboot quite frequently. Excellent feature for Windows sufferers.

Was Gateway the main problem or was it Windows?
