Firefox 3’s 4th Beta looking nice

firefox 3

I am really, really looking forward to Firefox 3.

I love Firefox when it’s behaving, but mine has a tendency to suddenly lose interest in displaying a given page’s images, or finding its CSS. There are many memory leaks in Firefox 2 and 3 is said to plug most of them. Great!

The beta for Firefox 3 just hit version 4, and it’s sounding like its shaping up to be a great browser. Page zooming, new download manager, and stability?

Yes, please.

new download manager eh? I love the download status bar addon for 2, so I hope it’s similar to that.

I was a fire-fox man a few months ago when I was still using my desktop. And then my prized Macbook arrived and I have barely even used the old Windows XP comp anymore.
And I must say,
I have fallen in love.
With Safari.
It’s streamlined design surpasses fire-foxes for me because I don’t have a lot of screen real estate, and when I downloaded Firefox I gasped at the horror of how much space just the address bar and bookmarks took up at the top! Ridiculous! And so I tried Safari for the first time. It was great, like love at first site (or use). But one thing still nagged on me… Safari was just a tad slower than Firefox. With my high speed connection I was appalled that Safari would butcher my internetz, and so I was stuck for a while, mildly using both browsers.
Until I found the new version of Safari, thats currently in beta. It takes regular Safari, adds a different color (and cooler looking) compass, and boosts the speed!
Now I can have beautiful design and speed all rolled together into one neat little program.

I totally miss the wand function that Opera provides when I’m using Firefox. I know there are add-ons for Firefox, but they just don’t seem to cut the mustard when compared to Opera’s out of the box functionality…

“seem to cut the mustard when…”
Where the hell are you from? South Carolina?
