What some of the people who have commented on the tab row taking up extra space are neglecting to acknoledge is that NO browser (Mac or PC) forces the functionality onto the user. By default, a user has to switch on a perferance to get tabbed browsing, just like they have to switch on pop-up blocking. Those of us who have been converted to the cult of tabs don't want to change the way the app looks and feels, we just want to be able to browse the web in the way we've grown accustom to. Let the user decide.
