I tried one of the nightly builds a couple days ago, and was impressed--

EXCEPT that smooth scrolling is on by default, and there is no way to turn it off.

What's wrong w/ smooth scrolling? Anyways, to disable it, type in about:config into the URL bar then scroll down to general.smoothscroll and change to false.

I'm currently using a build that's 14 days old. Too lazy to upgrade.

Be sure to get the tabbrowser extensions.

Bump, so Crazy can know how to disable smooth scrolling, and so I get an extra post count. :wink:

On slower systems, smooth scrolling tends to make it really choppy.

And I don't need it scrolling slooooowly anyway.
