Re: both Drew and Mike I agree 100%. All the tests show is synthetic results not real world performance.
Win 7 RC does all I ask of it and then some. Notice I left it up to the reader to make their own conclusions.
Besides if one went by the test results one would conclude that Linux Ubuntu was a superior OS, whch it's not, yet.
Ubuntu as good as it is still can't touch Windows for gaming performance and some other things Windows does best.
Although I use Linux it's more experimental for me and is not likely to replace MS Windows especially Win 7.
I've been using Win 7 since the early beta days, as my primary OS, and I'm still impressed.
You have to look at the whole package, not just browser performance.
I really can't see any performance difference in everyday use.
Re: reghakr the theme I'm using is Walnut2. It uses Gnome icons.
An add-on search from within FireFox for "Walnut" will show both a Walnut and a Walnut2.
Walnut2 is newer and has a more polished, finished look.
Both are compatible with Firefox 3.5.2 as well as the older Firefox 3.0.x.
A version is also available for Thunderbird though not in Linux.
IMHO the best Firefox themes.
