There's no reason why they couldn't incorporate both (horizontal and vertical) in the browser and have the user change their preferences as they see fit. And I only occasionally have as many as 20-30 tabs open. Usually it's more around the 10-15-ish mark.

I know it takes up a lot of real estate of the width of the page but on a 22" monitor it really wouldn't make any difference and I'd be able to view all my tabs in one go instead of scrolling sideways to view them. Considering vertical menus are much more flexible when designing websites, I'm surprised that the browser manufacturers haven't adopted a similar method for tabs. Maybe I'm in the minority though of having 20-30 tabs open at once? :) I may not be popular with a lot of users but I’d personally like to see tabs down the side in the same way that favourites/history has worked.

I don't actually like the combine stop/refresh button in Safari, and while I prefer the concept of Chrome's tabs on top, in practice I think you end up losing quite a lot of space. I'd like to see some really fresh approaches tried. At this early stage these would be just concept designs, looking at how other browsers solve the same problems they’re facing.
