    Funny how FF and IE now resemble Chrome.
    Chrome was the most aesthetically motivated interface of the three. Makes sense, I suppose.

    All our base will belong to they.

    What's nice is that Firefox 5 and 6 will both be released this year. They're fast tracking the development which is nice.

Now when I'm running FF4 it seems like every page I open takes a second or two to load, and some pages (like this website for instance) take a couple of second to load fully. Has anyone else noticed this, or is it just me?

    Might want to try dumping your profile and starting over. I have no issues on my end.

    Yeah, FF4 is much faster for me.

    Been getting a lot of hanging issues with Firefox 4. Pages do not respond sometime, and you have to reboot the computer. I went back to version 3, until they get an update to fix it.

    Biggest problem I have with ff4 is my fingerpoint reader doesn't work with it.

    Seeing as how nobody else is having that issue, it probably isn't a FF4 bug.

    I went back to Chrome. IMO Chrome > FF.

    Well, I went back to version 3 with no problems, so something must not be compatible somewhere.

    What is your hardware and what add-ons and such do you have for FF?

    I just downloaded it and so far I love it.
