30 tabs /is/ basic browsing. Tabs are the new back-button.
I guess Opera spoiled everybody when they introduced the tabbed browsing environment, and its low memory footprint. Now, people will open links in new tabs, sort of a reading queue, and then close the tab, instead of going back, back, back. Especially with sites like slashdot, digg, reddit, blogs, search engines, porn thumb galleries, etc. Where each link is represents a "fork" in your browing.
