    Firefox 3.5 is actually faster on my G5. I don’t know about 251% faster, but it is a noticeable difference. I primarily use Safari, but randomly use Firefox for a change of pace and for sites that don’t load that well in Safari.
    When I test drove Firefox on my G5, it ran very well…. Probably, the best Firefox release to date (for OS X, anyway).

    FF 3.5 sure feels faster to me.

    #6 Plug-ins: The ode of the incomplete software for those who think version incompatibility does not exist. One of the very reason why I stay clear from firefox.

    #18 You forgot “Death to Amerika!”

    #18 – zorkor – I would rather stick with … IE8 for common web standards web browsing.

    LMAO

    #19 – Dora kredyt hipoteczny kalkulator – I think I’ll stick with Chrome. I like it’s simplicity too.

    You enjoy big brother a little bit too much.

    *pretends to be an Apple fanboi* Safari outperforms Firefox just because Apple made it!

    #25 Hey Angel, your take on the Zelaya thingy!

    Mine is faster. But then, my conficker updated itself at the same time so I really don’t know.

    What do you mean by enoying big brother too much? I say Google Chrome and IE8 can beat the crap out of FF anytime. Just what is FF other than lots and lots of crappy plugin built by starving programmers to pass their time.

    I need simplicity, speed and non-intrusive browsing, Chrome does the job well while if something goes wrong, I have my IE8 handy. FF seems like an odd one out, like the ugly duckling. Ha!

    Did the RIAA just stop Usenet from carrying music, and not the newsgroups themselves? They’ll have to go after every newsgroup provider that channels binaries, to stop free music. I guess Leo isn’t gonna be getting any that way, now.

    Ya know, a long time ago I figured we’d all be working for the government someday, as it grew out of all proportions. But now I’ll thinking that someday we’ll all be working for the RIAA and MPAA. Cause they’ll need tons of people to find and the leaks of their music and movies. Kind of like a “big brother” spy network, only for corporate protection of its property. Millions of people, making sure that billions of the world’s people, don’t get to hear or see anything for free.
