Title: Thoughts on Firefox v4? Post by: bsfins on April 08, 2011, 10:24:28 am I've been using firefox4 as my secondary browser,and wondering other peoples thoughts on it...
I like it's customizable,it seems to be pretty fast,and I have the option of the "old style" bookmarks menus more reminiscent of like IE 7-8...Now that I've gotten used to having folders on a menu bar :D For me it doesn't seem to be as much of a resource hog,but it does seem like it takes forever to launch the first time I try to launch it that day.I've caught myself thinking I didn't hit it, Hit it again....Wait...Tick,Tock,Tick,Tock...Hit it again...then all of the sudden I've got 5 instances of Firefox running... :P :-[ Title: Re: Thoughts on Firefox v4? Post by: Dave Gray on April 08, 2011, 10:40:26 am I use Firefox primarily, with IE only when I have to, if something doesn't load correctly in one browser, or if I have to load a microsoft update. I haven't noticed anything really different in FF4. What's new about it?
Title: Re: Thoughts on Firefox v4? Post by: Brian Fein on April 08, 2011, 10:40:51 am Maybe I am not getting it... Its nothing special, IMO. I don't see much new from the prior version, other than they moved the tabs to the top just to confuse me more. What am I missing?
Title: Re: Thoughts on Firefox v4? Post by: MyGodWearsAHoodie on April 08, 2011, 12:27:27 pm Seveal months ago I started using firefox as my "secondary" browser. Now it is about all I use rarely launching IE (other than for google searches in which I want to see the ads sometimes) I am using 3.6.15 so it may or may not have features that v4 has.

I was using the Beta release candidate as my secondary browser,I use Chrome 90% of the time,then downloaded the v4,non release candidate version.I noticed a speed bump from v3.6 to V4 on somethings,but not others...I thought perhaps someone would tell me.... ;D Title: Re: Thoughts on Firefox v4?
