I have decided not to try it just yet.

The CEO's comments are pretty heavy though,

From Wikipedia -


According to the company's founder Kondo: "Silicon Valley is the place to expand the global IT business to a very good environment. A lot of success around, so consult with the idea seriously. Spawn new business for the network. Lawyer for one It's wide network of contacts in Japan and feel the difference. If I only wanted to go, "Kondo said.

But until they offer Ginsu knives - - - -

Floating Sidebar:

Detachable floating sidebar is one of the examples of Lunascape’s heightened usability that competitors do not offer. Taking the feedbacks from the users, Lunascape has made the interface more intuitive.

802729 2009-08-20 09:43:00 First impressions are that it's relatively clunky and slow to fire up. Looks reasonably customisable (with the exception of FF addons).

Can't say that it's going to last on this machine much more than tonight...

Don't know why you'd want floating sidebars either unless you had a huge screen - I tend to run all my apps maximised, so detaching a sidebar hides it as soon as I change focus back to the browser...
