FireFox 4 Beta

[Grey M@a]

That's a Chrome theme I applied lol, I like Chrome's UI a lot so this suits my needs and gives me the power of FF and its extensions

Hehe, got FF4 beta running here and they still pulled a lot of features from Chrome over to FF. Wonder what would happen to Mozilla is Google decided they had enough of supporting Mozilla.

FF4 has been in development for a very long time though, a lot of features have been in the pipeline a while. The 2 browsers are feature packed, yes, but they're not really on a copypasta race against each other

Tab grouping is something Chrome doesn't have though and is very neat!

Don't get me wrong, I used to love firefox but then it just became sluggish so moved to Chrome. Just a little concerning the way Mozilla gets a hefty chunk of its money from Google, there has to be a day when Google will pull the plug. Would be a shame to see Mozilla struggle if that were to happen. Competition has finally produced decent browsers across the board

I don't think they'll ever pull the plug Google are pro openness and competition after all!

That's the latest version, right? Fancy giving it a go, as there's a couple of things niggling me about FF3 now, and figured I'd do the upgrade now. Its downloading mega slowly though, anyone else have a faster link?

No that links to beta 12. RC1 has been on mozilas ftp server for 5 days https://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/nightly/4.0rc1-candidates/build1/win32/en-GB/ to give developers a head start. If mozilla keep to their plan then it will be on the site tonight/tomorrow.

<3 tab groups tho

Yeah, nobody needs to see the porn tab group other than yourself!
