    Just downloaded and trying the new Firefox beta 4 version. Even not the official release yet I must say it rocks. - The best ever browser in the making with nice tools available.

    Anybody else tried it?

    Would like to try when the official release is launched. II've hear it incorporates more than 900 enhancements, but doesn't look much different than bata 3 version.

    Apparently, most of the enhancements are in the back-end (for efficiency, etc).

    I won't upgrade until the stable edition is released, but it's good to know that it works so well.

    I hope the 27 add-ons that I use are all upgraded to FF3 too... :cool:

    Hows the memory usage in beta 4?

    I installed it this afternoon but most of my add-ons didn't work so reverted back to v2.

    i'm not moving onto FF3 yet. i got my custom settings for FF for best browsing experience for my internet connection. it took me almost 2 days to finalise those settings. i'm not moving onto FF3 and ruin all my settings just incase the browser isnt upto the mark to my needs.

    I'm also gonna wait for the final release. I don't like getting my hopes up for something that may not work out good to begin with. Usually if i try beta's it;s because i want to look for bugs to help out. Dang now i want to try it lol. Dang curiosity gets the best of me.

    When I upgraded from IE7 to FF, I found my computer didn't crash nearly as often. As for features, wow, the add-ons for FF blew my mind away.

    I'd hate to go back to IE. Too many features in FF that I'd struggle to do without.

    Don't forget security:p and the fact IE doesn't support agreed upon standards alone is enough reson not to use it

    I havn't tried the FF Beta, I'm in no rush to update/grade though typically I'd get it right away
