This morning, I am seeing very strange behavior when using either
Safari (3.0 beta) or Firefox (latest version). I regularly go to
several newspaper sites, such as the Washington Post
(washingtonpost.com), New York Times, etc. When I go to any news site,

You can have Stacks AND Folders on the dock at the same time right? Or
just one?

A problem that I've seen on my powerbook and G5 with external monitors
(to the right of the main screen).
When a stack fans open from the dock any overflow from the main monitor
to the 2nd is not rendered (which makes stacks even more annoying than I

Does command-double-click of URLs still work in Leopard's Terminal.app?

This is embarrassing to admit, but I'm very bad at
installing command line apps.  When they don't go EXACTLY as
