who cares about memory-usage anyway? like you have 50 tabs opened up all the time.

I certianly care. In Ubuntu I'll typically have 8-10 programs running across various desktops, so it's important to me that the programs I run be as memory-efficient as possible.I may not have 50 tabs open, but as many as 15 isn't unheard of.

I played around with the awesomebar. It's nifty, but I'm not sure I'll have much practical use for it.
I'm currently in my Windows partition and have just updated to the beta here as well. I note that there have been some interface changes to the Windows version that weren't present in the Linux version. Maybe Linux users don't care about eye candy as much? The FF 2.x interface worked just fine for me, so it's not something I'm overly concerned about anyway.
