I have finally converted to firefox, been on it for 5 mins and am already liking it better than IE, however will still keep it on my computer since some sites wont work with FF.

Just thought id let everyone know

Judas 04-24-2006 05:16 PM

Unknown_Sniper 04-24-2006 05:42 PM

I'll get the new IE and probably switch back, my IE now is messed up and I'm used to FF now, basically no difference though besides tabs and FF sucks with some imbedded video and such..

Machette 04-24-2006 06:19 PM

Stopped using IE a month ago and picked up FF and probably will never go back..

i think ie 7 is gonna blow firefox out the water. looks hot, and it has all the bells and whistles that makes firefox "leet".

Proteus 04-24-2006 06:50 PM

Firefox needed too many plugins and whatknot just to run vids and shit and it still doesn't show vids so I use IE. If it aint broke don't fix it.

1080jibber 04-24-2006 06:55 PM

anyone know where i can get older versions of FF?

Get the IE plug-in for firefox. Opens whatever pages you want in an IE tab within firefox.

bullshit.

ff as of now I have
My weather right on the bottom of my bar unobtrusive, gmail notifier, seemless integration of a my downloads in a little bar on the bottom, News feed reader built into browser, simple ftp built into browser, the ability to highlight text and auto copy it

And built in search engine extensions. I currently have Google, Yahoo, Amazon, Answers.com, creative commons, ebay, cddb(music site), IMDB, Webster, Wikipedia, Ask.com, and urbandictionary

Welcome IE to the show when it finally decides to get here, because ive been using all the "new cool features" that they offer for several months if not years

all with extensions and all back to a simple browser at the touch of a button.

As soon as FF fixes the inability to close a SINGLE tab thats causing the entire program to lag - itll be forever eating IE's dust.

Sure FF keeps everything in one neat nice little pane - but what you sacrifice is just mind blowing. . .

Which 99.1337 percent of the polulation has ZERO use for - much less in some gaudy overloaded web-app.

You want weather - stick your head out the window.

Gmail Notifier - that lil tab that says "GMAIL - INBOX (1)" should be a pretty good indicator if you have mail.

News Feed - CNN.com - oh hell. . .7 characters, my hands are about to fall off.

FTP - only addicts who arent getting any at home have any need to dl porn at work.

lol @ hand out window.


i dont give a shit what browser im using theres no way in hell id sacrifice window space for a "side", "address", or "wtfever" bar ...

http://www.netscape.com/

^^ tried the same shit a few years ago ( btw netscape is based on mozilla, same as firefox ), and who the fuk even mentions their name. ill give firefox 2, 3 more years at best. ive already been reading firefox users commenting on ie7 on microsofts ng forums and they seem quite pleased.

TGB! 04-24-2006 09:31 PM

Im a lil wary about reinstalling the IE Beta - I know after I installed it - it pooped on my computer. But what I did try - I liked. I appreciate what FF is trying to do, but alot of the FF Boosters remind me of the APPLE boosters. . .

Sure the product might be sleeker and less "corporate" (yea right, JOBS is pissing hundred dollar bills) - but its get the same problems that the competition has - although for some reason I have this fantasy about fucking an asian on top of one of the 17 inch powerbooks.

Unless I want the weather for oh lets say 2 days from now. sorry I have better things to do than hold my head out the window for 2 days I can also just mouse over a little icon then going to [url="http://www.weather.com"]http://www.weather.com[/url] then typing in my zip code then scrolling down.

What do you live in a bubble? - Who doesnt know what the weather is going to be like in their hometown? Unless you are deaf, mute, and blind - theres no logical reason other than Souther Inbreeding to not know what the weather is going to be like. . .

Keep the browser open. Its not like having too many browsers open is a pet peeve of yours.

You exist on the cusp of Internet Evolution - youre to be applauded. The rest of us will be content with not being too lazy to drag a mouse up to the top of our web-browser and clicking "BOOKMARKS" -

OH THE PAIN!

Seriously - your FF looks like a cheap hooker dressed up in a CHANEL™ dress, high heels with neon lights tooked into the pumps and bright green lipstick.

that is honestly your weakest attempt EVAR at trying to justify what your point.

I mean do you honestly believe I keep all that shit open. Its there I click it check and then close it. 98% of the time my browser is just like your sex life, dull, devoid of anything, and by itself.

meanwhile you talk about OH NOES TEH BOOKMARKS. you go and open each and everywebsite then look at it move to the next. with the rss reader it downloads all the headlines right there in one box, i can preview them on 10 different sites without actually browsing to them.

oh and [url="http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=trife"]http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=trife[/url]

I was trying to communicate wif you nomesayin' dawg

B'Oh forgot you're one of 14 Black republicans doin all you can to get accepted by whitey right P-diddy I mean Percival

BTW noticed this on reading a review on IE7

"ClearType. In a somewhat controversial move, Microsoft is enabling ClearType rendering by default, even if the user has not enabled ClearType at the OS level. In the unlikely event that you're not familiar with ClearType, the short answer is that it effectively triples the horizontal resolution of text by using a technology called sub-pixel rendering. ClearType generally improves the readability of text by a wide margin, but some users complain that it makes text look blurry, especially on CRT displays."

kinda tard move if you ask me. Not that hard to make it an option.

http://www.winsupersite.com/reviews/ie7_beta2_02.asp

Ill give IE7 a try and hell it might be nice enough to switch back. but they are so far behind on releasing these features and enhancements. Ill be interested in the security aspect of it for sure.
