I have been using it for a few weeks, and it seems faster. Although, I was not happy when some of my plugin's were not supported.

I downloaded/installed it yesterday. So far I love it. I see a few CSS errors that were fine in FF2 and one of my extensions didn't work but all the rest do. It does seem faster especially on pages that use a lot of JavaScript (like gmail).

I like it as well. I've been having some problems with Flash though. The browser seems to crash randomly when using Flash. Sometimes it works just fine, and sometimes it crashes.

I think I will wait a little before I install it.

Maybe wait for a few fixes.

I downloaded it yesterday and I think its a pretty good improvement from the earlier version. As mentioned before some of my plugins are not supported, but I guess i'll have wait for the developers to upgrade the plugins so they work.

No thanks.

I use Opera instead...

I don't like Firefox in any way.

Firefox is waay better than Opera. You get everything Opera has, plus better reliability at rendering pages.

Opera? My dad uses that. I find it very, very slow and quite bad too.

Heh heh heh - sorry Nullbyte, but Firefox beats Opera in every respect.

@TcM: How old is your dad?

I don't know how that relates to the thread.

Neither do I. Funny how I would ever need to ask that. :) I was just interested.
I suppose it is sort of related, because we're discussing Firefox -> Web browsers -> Opera -> Your dad. ;)

I'm not upgrading to 3.0 yet. Version 2 works fine.
