Firefox 5!

It's finally here! I think it is a TON better than any version of Firefox that I ever had and it also looks a lot more sleek too! The extra speed is quite useful also! What do you think about it?

It sounds awesome.... But I have Internet Explorer, which sucks :p

I have to say I have really, really gotten used to Chrome. I did update to the latest Firefox for HTML5 testing, but I am so rooted into Chrome I don't think I could permanently change. Not that Chrome is necessarily better, but well..it's where I keep all my stuff lol.

I forgot to check, does Firefox finally have a combined Search/Address bar in FF 4? After getting used to that in Chrome, that has always been my #1 gripe about FF, since they kept them separate bars for so long. It seems small, but it is totally irritating once you get used to it lol.

Yeah I know what you mean about chrome, it took me a while to switch back but I did so just for web development things on it and it works pretty good. Yes you can google in the address bar but there is also a search bar still.

Chrome is my baby now. I only use Firefox for Firebug and that is rare now.

Chrome is mine as well...I have since installed it at work and use it at home...tried FF the other day, and just wasn't the same...

While it has gotten about 20,0000x better in the last version, I still have a few issues with Chrome's rendering (maybe not even its rendering, as I don't know where the problem is stemming from). It used to be every few pages, but now only about 1 in 50, will have an image link broken. I open it in Firefox or IE, and the image displays no problem. I use no add-ons or extensions in Chrome, so I know it isn't that causing the problem. Aside from that, which as I mentioned before, is a small gripe now, it is an excellent browser, and its HTML5 support really has caught up to and maybe even surpassed Safari.

Firefox 4 was released a couple of months ago. In fact, Firefox 5 is soon to be released. Just to let you know

That's odd, I have never had that problem.

I downloaded FF 5 last night and it runs really fast, although I still prefer Chrome.

Firefox 5!
