also, on my machine, the slower I seem to scroll with the trackpad, the 
faster it seems to scroll in FireFox. Is this the case with your 
PowerBook?

I've upgraded my version of the scroll drivers, and the scroll speed 
works fine now. Also, Instead of using Firefox, I'm using Camino, as 
all of the widgets are native, and it's a bit faster on the Mac.
