IF you have a widescreen monitor, then you might like a sidebar, but on 
a small, say 10 inch, screen, it is NOT an option, at least unless you 
want to spend half your online time scrolling sideways, as well as up 
and down.  Not my idea of fun.
Those who don't like the bookmarks toolbar are welcome to hide it, and 
forego its usefulness.  Just as I ignore the sidebar.  But don't deprive 
the rest of us of it!
