In general I find NN error messages to be MUCH more explicit and helpful 
in identifying line numbers and file names (and more). MSIE leaves me 
guessing about that - a real issue if using  a lot of frames and .js 
files  : "line 87 of _which_ file was that exactly???"

The only really annoying thing was when it would show up errors in NN's 
own "chrome" code, esp in NN6 but imho 6.x was more of a disaster than a 
browser.

Once you get over the errors being in a separate console then it is a 
good experience.

One trick I have used is to make javascript: the browsers home page so 
one click on the Home button brings up the console. Not mcuh good if you 
really wanted a home page, but about:blank does me for MSIE.
