[AT] So, How do you Like Windows 7? (Off topic computer question)

[Mike Sloane]

I don't have Windows 7, so I can't comment on that. But I never use 
Internet Explorer unless it is absolutely necessary (for doing Windows 
updates). I use Firefox on an "antique" PC running XP, and I don't have 
problems with multiple tabs open or viewing "thumbnail" images found on 
Google/Yahoo searches.
