I suppose said simulated user has no bookmarks within the Links folder of his IE favorites. Some replies at said ZDNet article responds that FFx imports all their IE bookmarks and puts the contents of the Links folder in FFx’s bookmarks toolbar.

An interesting suggestion from one of the article’s reader is that should the bookmarks toolbar be empty, a text that says “drag links to this toolbar” or somesuch. Seems like an interesting idea.

It also seems not hard to imagine that Mr. Ou is intentionally creating controversy and grief in order to gain readership. Dvorak style.

I’m personally waiting for Blake’s review of IE7. Should be much better than Ou’s antagonistic partisan drivel. Its ‘reviews’ like that which highlight the weakness of media silos. Yeah, Blake should give a balanced review.

Anyway, I just checked how much space is taken up if you activae the “links” bar and menu bar (side by side) in IE7. Fact is, Firefox is more compact, with menu, bookmarks, navigation bar and tab bar.
