news.cnet.com— The upcoming version 3.6 of Firefox will be able to tell if you're listing to starboard--and pass that information along to applications running in the browser.

Most major computers? It's in zero desktops and as far as laptops, the only ones listed here are Macs and Lenovos. Lenovos probably have even smaller of a market share than Macs. You're an idiot.
Or, and this is just a thought, you could turn it off.not every feature of enery program is going to be useful to every user, but every feature will be useful to some user.
I'm not an Apple fanboy or anything but to install an entirely different operating system just to run Firefox is a little ridiculous. Flock, which is built off of the Firefox engine, and Safari work 99.9% flawless. It's Firefox, not OSX, my Mac, Apple, Steve Jobs... it's the browser.

It's meant to be used in mobile devices[1] where orientation matters. Besides, it's a drop in the bucket compared to the Mozilla codebase (The patch for Linux is 11kB[3]).Also, XmlHttpRequest was bloat in IE 5.0 before everyone started using it for AJAX[2].[1]: <a class="user" href="http://hacks.mozilla.org/2009/10/orientation-for-firefox/" rel="nofollow">http://hacks.mozilla.org/2009/10/orientation-for-f ...</a>[2]: <a class="user" href="http://www.codinghorror.com/blog/archives/000606.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.codinghorror.com/blog/archives/000606.h ...</a>[3]: <a class="user" href="https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=512345" rel="nofollow">https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=51234 ...</a>P.S. I'm not attempting to justify IE's dominance in today's market. IE6/7 needs to die a quick death but XHR was an IE feature first -- it's just a fact.

I've got a 2yr old MacBook Pro.. granted I use a lot of tabs, but 3.5 suddenly made firefox a cpu pig.
