Firefox 3.5 + \"Awesome\"bar

Can it be disabled? The fact that I can no longer copy and paste URLs is driving me nuts. I'm about to go back to 3.0.

Thanks for any help.

Re:

From what I'm reading you can upgrade from Vista w/o re-installing everything but XP has to be a clean install. What say you? Correct. Vista is a straight upgrade (maintains programs etc. if you choose not to repartition/format etc.) XP => 7 = Documents and Settings, Program Files and Windows Folde...

Pretty sure that you need to have a 120Hz signal for a 120Hz TV to display it beyond the native 60Hz signal... I could be wrong... I don't have a digital cable box, just analog right from the wall jack TV on my (Samsung!) LCD TV.

They wouldn't give hard dates. I've been using the RC since release and I have it on several of my machines. It's fast and stable....

Using the public beta (7000) on my MacBook using Bootcamp (2GHz Core Duo, 2GB RAM). It's so much faster than Vista, however I've had some minor problems, as is expected with Betas. Office 07 SP1 won't install and some issues getting Adobe Reader installed.

I do like the flashy loading screen. :)

I actually find Vista to be a nice OS as it matures. I use Vista Business 32-bit at work on an average machine and it works great. I am still XP/2000 at home though.

I downloaded Windows 7 and burned the ISO. Now I just have to figure out which PC I want to sacrifice to install it on. :wink:
