Why I dumped Firefox

Ok so I was just as excited as the next guy about the new release if Mozilla's Firefox(2.0) but boy oh boy what a smack in the face it was.

Pro's-
  • Spell checker

  • Speed
Con's-
  • Memory usage - HOLY CRAP!! 100MB+ for a browser????

  • Stabilty - I had it crash about 10 times in 2 weeks, it was a fresh install btw

  • Bookmarks - I have never had as many problems with them as I did with this version

  • Just didn't feel done

All I have to say is thank god they released another version of 1.5
1.5.0.8


Mozilla needs to stop worrying about IE7 they know Firefox is superior, if they keep on rushing releases they will end up just like Microsoft and nobody wants that. Not EVEN Microsoft. Hell look at Vista the KING of delays....

Later
