You can visit about:home. Though the awesome screen displayed when you click on the new tab button shows the same info, your most commonly visited sites.

Dear kbrosnan, First of all, thanks SO much for a reply. Wouldn't it be much easier to just implement a home button to press so you could instantly be taken to the start page without always having to type about:home everytime? Thanks, David
