Bring back Safari Tabs on Top

I should have professed my love for the tabs on top during the Safari 4 beta but alas I kept to myself and now Safari is just like the others. Why did Apple not at the very least offer a choice between the original and the new and improved tabs placement? I just upgraded my beta 4 by accident today (I kept unchecking the Safari 4 upgrade) and I’m about to Time Machine it back to the beta. Finally on my 13″ MacBook I was able to have both tabs and my Bookmarks bar visible. Now I have to again disable my bookmarks bar so that I can have tabs visible. There is once again a hunk of gray mass at the top of my window that does nothing but display the title of the page. The complaint I read the most was that people didn’t like that you had to move the window around by grabbing a tab. Anyone that needs that much real estate just to move the window well I feel for you. Anyway, that is my rant. I could go on but the people have spoken and tabs on top are gone for now. I bet the majority of the people that wanted the old tabs back are probably the same ones that “voted for change”.

Is this real?

I must admit I am a pretty much in awe. Is this for real?
The link below is CNN video coverage of the new Immigration amnesty bill. It is 3 minutes and 32 seconds long.
