Nautilus in Browser mode by default?

Yo;  I just installed Fedora 2 a couple weeks ago (Former 
Mandrake/SuSE/Debian tinkerer... fairly new to Linux in general), and 
have been trying to give the default Windows95/Old Mac OS spread-out 
method of Nautilus's windows a chance... and am about to blow over the 
top.  I find myself running "nautilus --browser"more and more often...

*How do I get Nautilus to run in browser mode by default, like it used 
to?* (The last version of RedHat I used was 8.0... and it was fine in 
this respect.)  Do people really like the spread-out method that much? 
Or did RedHat make an executive decision... isn't this a community 
project?  Bla.  Just in case you hadn't got it, the Explorer-98 style 
(Side pane, address bar, navigation buttons) was an ADVANCEMENT over the 
Explorer-95 style, IMHO (Yes yes, I'm assuming that Microsoft was the 
first to make file managers act like web browsers, but I could be wrong, 
after all, have they ever inovated before?).

Thanx,
    ES
