personally......

it has been said before and i completely agree. if i wanted to use a web  
browser id open firefox. if i want to use a second life client i want to  
see floaters galore.

im not bashing progression... by all means the work that was done on 2.0  
is amazing... but for someone who is fluent in 1.2x the 2.x jump is like  
taking a fish out its bowl and saying walk or die. the entire set up is  
very confusing. perhaps there is a way to revert all the UI to classic. a  
debug setting. or different skin. Same functionality, different look.

just my 2c
