Opening new tabs in Vista vs XP
I have a question/problem that I was wondering if some of the more tech savvy people on this forum could help me out with.
I have a desktop that runs Windows Vista. I also have a netbook that I use for school that runs Windows XP. For both machines, I use Firefox to browse the web. Ever since, years ago, I switched over from using Internet Explorer to Firefox, I've become a "new tab addict." Rather than opening up webpages/sites in the current tab/window I'm looking at, I like to open up multiple pages in different tabs. For example, when I go to these forums, I right click and open up new tabs for all the various threads that I'm interested in reading, rather than reading a thread, hitting "back" and clicking on a new thread.
The problem that I'm having is that recently, something changed so that when I right-click in Windows Vista on my desktop, "open link in new tab" is the first option, while in Windows XP on my netbook, it's the second option. It's a pain in the ass going back and forth between my two machines because invariably, I get used to one, only to suddenly open up all these new windows when I switch to my other machine.
Is there any way I can change the order of the "right-click" options so "open link in new tab" occupies the same position on both my machines? Thanks!

Also, thank you to everyone who pointed out that you can middle click to open a new tab. I didn't realize that.
I guess you really do learn something new (or many new things) every day.
Also, I got it right, Sweet!
Maybe also give Sabayon a try, since you can get it with Gnome 3 and KDE.
Edit: Burn this to a CD and boot with it inside your computer. It's a Fedora Live CD with Gnome 3 on it.
