"lol... if the close button issue is really all that's keeping you from using opera 9, i suggest you just go to

"Tools Preferences Advanced Tabs"

and uncheck "Show close button on each tab" ;) "


Thanks... but where's the close button now?!!

One of the other reasons for me prefer firefox to opera is the much cleaner preferences UI...

At the top-right (with the menubar), where it's been for almost a decade.
