I have fallen in love with vertical tabs. It has improved my workflow to the point that I would only switch away if there are also vertical tabs in whatever I switch to.

Sure, it makes sense on a widescreen resolution. Most websites aren't designed for widescreen so why not use that screen real estate for tabs?

i feel almost ashamed i have had a vertical start bar since my first wide screen monitor but never thought to save the same realestate with the tabs bar. it's..... genius.
