Good Christ, what comments! "You're the perfect example of someone who can't even grasp the simple concept of how YOUR actions have consequences for OTHER people. If Sony wanted to remove Other OS that's up to them, people like you and Geor

Hmm. Showing tips / help one line at a time might not be the best idea. For instance if you want to figure out what the filter does, you have to just click next over and over again and hope that at some point it will tell you. Otherwise, th

One thing that annoys me about Chrome is that on closing a tab with Ctrl + W, it will always open the tab that's on the right of the closed tab. In Opera you have the option to activate the last active tab on closing. That way, you can just
