Opera seems to allow many more tabs on the new tab page than the 9 Firefox seems to allow. Is it possible to increase the number of tabs on the new tab page in Firefox?

hello bstjoe, yes you can enter about:config into the firefox address bar (confirm the info message in case it shows up) & search for the preference named browser.newtabpage.columns / browser.newtabpage.rows. double-click them and change their values accordingly.
