Higher System Rqmts and a few incompatibilities

by: MrLarryB2k on 17-Jun-2008 04:41:14 PM

Pros: Good appearance and speed.

Cons: Mac Firefox Requirements are OS X 10.4 (Tiger) and above.

Suggest CNET correct above requirements.

(Windows Firefox not fully compatible with AVG 8.0.)

Firefox just pushed me back to an IE only user.

Pros: I liked the previous version. And foxmarks bookmarks addon.

Cons: I am actually unistalling firefox completely, just so that I don't accidentally use it anymore. I'm going to IE after many years of firefox only . Dissapointing, I only used firefox before. Firefox 3 crashes itself often (white screen). I cannot stand it on my older laptop, it can't even keep up with typing speed on google. HORRIBLY SLOW. And startup speed is now triple or worse than it's last version, and also IE. And.... upgrading from 2.0 to 3.0 seems to be practically speaking, irriversable. It pains me. It also copies the look of the new IE, which is annoying enough. Why does default button location have to change itself so much? The back forward is so tiny, and crammed and 'perfect circles' gag.

It's a improvement from FF2

Pros: I installed FF 3 on a MacBook Pro. I have been using FF 2 for some sites that did not work well with Safari. But I still used Safari the most. FF3 left me scratching my head about it. I think it looks better in OS X then FF 2 but as far as function I had problems with a couple of sites I used FF2 for. It certainly was faster loading pages and I had no crashes in the time I used it.

Cons: I don't like the fact it did not work with some sites I use Firefox for. I even tried the IE rendering spoof option. But the site still was rendered wrong. So in the end I still find Safari better overall for Java too. Firefox still is trying to be too much of a browser. I was hoping for a more streamlined version.
