Mozilla Firefox 4 pre-beta candidate released for Mac, Windows and Linux - Polidicks

[quote=GSMArena][INDENT] Okay, those alpha releases were somewhat tricky to get going and were so buggy that they were probably not worth it. However, now that Mozilla Firefox 4 has reached the pre-beta stages of its development, things start to look a whole lot better. [/INDENT][IMG]http://blog.gsmarena.com/pics/10/06/firefox-4-pre-beta/gsmarena_001.jpg[/IMG][INDENT] If you are eager to have a taste of the latest reincarnation of the world’s second most popular browser, all you need to do is follow [URL="http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/nightly/latest-trunk/"]the link[/URL] and find the appropriate installer for you system. The Minefield logo is still there so DO expect a few glitches here and there but having played with it for a few hours I didn’t see anything bad enough to ruin the whole experience. Anyone brave enough to take it out for a spin, please share your experience in the comment section below.

But is there any point in getting this to replace Chrome?

No thanks. Chrome is fine imo

Looks.... ugly

[QUOTE=SBD;23003538]But is there any point in getting this to replace Chrome?[/QUOTE] Chrome finally has a proper version of AdBlock that actually blocks ads instead of hiding them, so I see no reason to switch back.

[QUOTE=SBD;23003538]But is there any point in getting this to replace Chrome?[/QUOTE] It's basically the same thing as 3.6 save for looks, so it's down to preference. Oh, and FF has addons but they don't work in the pre-release beta.

With the tabs on top: [IMG]http://i45.tinypic.com/6hj42s.png[/IMG] hmm.. :raise: Anyways, because the addons don't work yet, it doesn't have the versatility that made me choose it over Google Chrome. It's basically a Firefox styled Chrome browser. [QUOTE=NotYou3;23003684]eew tabs on top what are you doing mozilla thats one of the reasons i dont like Chrome[/QUOTE] You can put them on the bottom, although it doesn't look as good because they didn't finish that part yet: [IMG]http://i48.tinypic.com/sbihdl.png[/IMG]

eew tabs on top what are you doing mozilla thats one of the reasons i dont like Chrome

[QUOTE=NotYou3;23003684]eew tabs on top what are you doing mozilla thats one of the reasons i dont like Chrome[/QUOTE] Fucking this! Tabs on the top just looks wrong.

Well it's a good thing you can change it then

[QUOTE=SBD;23003920]Internet.[/QUOTE] Yes the one on the right is on the Slovenian Google.

What's the point in making a browser that look 100% the same like another one?

Chrome looks nicer. Firefox now looks like a dodgy version of Chrome.

Using Firefox 4.0b1. It doesn't say Minefield in the stupid little thing, hmm. It looks like Chrome, to be honest. And addons work without problems.

Tabs on top? That's gonna get obnoxious seeing as how i usually have 250+ tabs open

Looks a lot like Opera 10.

[QUOTE=Xen Tricks;23005693]Tabs on top? That's gonna get obnoxious seeing as how i usually have 250+ tabs open[/QUOTE] no you don't

I got both, and I've been using FF ever since I heard about it. I just can't get used to chrome, even thought it's a good browser.

I hate the new look. I like how Firefox looks now.

[QUOTE=redonkulous;23005770]Looks a lot like Opera 10.[/QUOTE] Holy shit you're right

Chrome changed my way of browsing by showing me how tabs on top can make navigation much easier, good thing that firefox is now doing it aswell.

Cool, now it looks like opera!

I preffer my current Firefox thank you, Chrome was shitty enough already

I love my Firefox.

Mozilla copied resizeable text boxes too. Awesome! [editline]04:22PM[/editline] [QUOTE=Xen Tricks;23005981][IMG]http://img31.imageshack.us/img31/5736/tabsf.png[/IMG][/QUOTE] Why?

I keep a session going for weeks and I just gather things as I go. My internet doesn't work too great at night, so it's nice to have a buffer to go and read.

tabs on top is the way forward

Don't really care as long as it loads my porn
