So Firefox 4...
Anyone use it? Is it worth the upgrade? How long before Downunder comes through here pimping Opera? How are the layout changes? Faster Slower?

They're not bad, defiantly alot less cluster, You can hit one button to completely pull up all the options in a tidy little package.

More viewing space if you choose so. Looks a little better than Chrome IMO. It seems quicker than the previous FF but I'm not sure which is faster ATM.
I had to tweak it a little so it's more convenient. Very similar to Chrome except clicking on the orange Firefox tab gives you the menu. It doesn't give you the Most Visited page like on Chrome when you click a new tab though. |

Yeah, it's less cluttered. It was a shock at first, but I'm used to it now.
I've been using it on my laptop, but I can't wait to try out the extra screen space on my new 24" monitor. |

I read somewhere that Firefox 5 is out soon because IE9 trumps FF4. I don't know if there is any truth to it tho. Also it has a hard time bringing up all the videos on the main xhamster page, so you gotta refresh it like 7 times for all the videos to load.

5, 6 and 7 are all coming out this year, but that was before IE comes out.
Chrome is the most accurate browser, IE the fastest and Firefox the slowest and 2nd most accurate. |

I've switched back to the previous version of Firefox, since the new one uses over four times as much memory, not to mention that it's also much slower.
I tested while loading an identical selection of pages. |

I switch between Chrome on my XP machines and IE9 and Opera on my Win7 machines.
Firefox always has been and always will be a steaming pile of shit. |
