It's not as complete as Opera, but you can download the Google tool bar and customize your own frequently visited pages on the Links shortcut bar. It works pretty well for me.
Try using the "Blue" theme on the TR forums (can be changed in your profile). Doesn't look right with Mozilla/NN7. Looks great under IE6. Mozilla/NN7 don't support colored scrollbars, which I realize doesn't comply with the W3C CSS validator. Oh well...

And with that you encourage web developpers to continue design non-standard code. Which, needles to say, is a bad thing.

Forgot to ask you one thing the other day. What version of RH did you get?
Should have come with "enlightenment". The most innovative windows environment out there, and blazingly fast. Forgot to tell you about it

Not really the 'simplest interface', probably just too used to IE and I have only ever used Mozilla, Netscape and Opera. The lack of buttons makes IE seem simpler, I guess. Though I just checked on Mozilla and Opera again, and Mozilla has even LESSER buttons. Yeap, think I've been using IE too long.
