I see this move to the MS Office "ribbon" style as a big negative for FF. I'm not totally against it, especially if they can make it less intrusive than the "ribbon" in MS Office '07, but I'm not a fan of this at all right now. Until I see more of how they plan to integrate this feature, I'm saying no thanks. I'll switch to another browser before I use the intrusive "ribbons."

I currently use Chrome and FF interchangeably for this reason. FF is extensible while Chrome is not yet fully extensible, but Chrome is very unintrusive in it's layout. Not taking into effect the speeds and security of these browsers in comparison to others.

I'm not a real heavy user of any office productivity software as I don't have a great need for them at this time. I do very strongly dislike the "ribbon" in MS Office. It takes up so much space that is unnecessary. With the menu's you had small icons representing a task and it took up a lot less space. These "ribbons" don't get any ribbons in my book.

I realize you can minimize them, but who wants to click on the menu just to open it and then have it disappear every time you do a task? I've tried using MS Office 2007 with the "ribbons" and I can't stand the space they take up. I still have to learn them for support, but I myself will not use it unless I have to. Even though OOo is not the greatest software available for office productivity because of it's sluggish performance, it is still menu-driven and maintains the customizability needed to maximize the real-estate.

I'm a student at Bob Jones University (bju.edu) in Greenville, SC and we do not advertise that we support Linux, although we have many very capable faculty members and students working in the IT dept. that would be willing to help with any needs. We actually have a section on our IT Forum dedicated entirely to Linux where most Linux users can find whatever answers they need to find that are specific to our environment. Those who are not as apt(-get) with the Linux environment are always welcome to ask for support.

I think all games should have a good story that is replayable. Gamers are paying $50 plus for games now and developers are spending way too much time on graphics and they are losing franchises because of poor replay value or poor gameplay. It would be nice to see the prices come down, but that won't be happening, so let's see some better gameplay and storylines.
