I have not downloaded it yet, but I assume that like previous versions, text can be substituted for buttons. I ALWAYS do this, as I prefer the extra space.

And do I understand that 'session saver' has been made a feature without special 'extension'? I have had session saver for a couple years....and that feature is included with Opera. It is almost indispensable to me....though some folks don't like things saved at all. I often have 4-10 windows open when I sign off, and hate having to go re-open them in bookmarks.

Firefox will also, (with the right extension) allow you to see all the tabs you have open, or toggle that bar out of sight....lots of options.
