I saw a video online showing this cool Aurora browser with a futuristic 3D environment so I downloaded Aurora and was greatly disappointed that it looks 0% like what was in that video. Was that just a joke?

That Aurora and the Aurora you're using now aren't at all related. The one in the video was a concept, from 4 years ago. The current Aurora didn't come about until March of 2011, when Firefox 4, and the rapid-release cycle were launched. For some reason, Aurora is a very popular name for software, sorry about the confusion.

No. I don't recall where I saw the video originally, but there was no information (comments/description/etc.) where I first saw it. But this is the video: http://vimeo.com/1450211
