Firefox FOAR!

Who else is using it? so far I'm loving the new layout and features. Haven't run into any page issues yet, which is always a good sign.

THIS!

I've tried this and Google Chrome... Firefox was constantly crashing on me, just about any time I'd use it. I'd go as far as to say it crashed more often in the four months I used it than in all the years I'd been using IE. It's annoying. No real problems with Chrome, thankfully.

SBF, firefox 4 has been out a day. Unless you have been using the beta, in which case problems are to be expected.

Anyway ran it all day with no errors so far.

Firefox 4 is available as RC version, so that means it is not official release to public yet.

Anyway, I tried to download the installation, but can't get it due to overloads in the servers.

I'll check out when I get a chance.

firefox 3 had these problems already, I don't think they will ever fix this

i use Chrome. I'm happy with it, and don't really see a reason to download a new browser just because it /might/ be better.

also, i've had issues with firefox before, but i can attribute most of those to the fact that i was using Mac OSX (ew) or Red Hat Linux (double ew)

...no offense to mac or linux users, i just disagree with them after having used windows for so long and having to use everything but windows for programming.

so it doesn't look different just because im using a very new computer model. it looks goooood :3

ive had to do java at uni on mac and on linux. NOT on windows. windows is reserved for crap like matlab >_>

If I did it at uni its would be on unix, luckily you can just show the demonstrator on your laptop. I haven't had to touch the dam unix command prompt this year

I tried Firefox 4 and it's a lot faster than the previous version (3.x) But i can't tell which is faster, Opera or Firefox 4... so i'm still using both browsers xD (yes, i use both , but mostly Opera)
