I don't even like the pictures I've seen of firefox 3.7, much less of 4. 
I use the bookmarks toolbar every time I open firefox. The menu bar is 
definitely something that they should leave alone. I don't want the stop 
and reload buttons combined either. Firefox 4 looks like a combination 
of Safari, Google Chrome, and Firefox 3.5. I can deal with some of the 
changes in 3.5, such as the new firefox icon and the absence of a close 
button when there's only one tab-but they are taking things too far with 
4. If it stays that way, 3.5 might be my last major update.
