Ugh, I was expecting Firefox 2.0 or maybe 3.0, but 3.5 is worrying because I'm really hesitant about making the switch to 4.0. I just absolutely hate the layout, and customizing it only brings back some of the old layout features, status bar especially is horrendous.
Seriously the only reason I'm not using Chrome is because I liked the layout and addon support Firefox had, now that Firefox's old layout's out the window there's not much holding me back from just biting the bullet and dealing with Chrome's except 3.6.
Hopefully 3.6 won't be phased out any time soon, or more so, Firefox releases an option to use the old layout.

Old layout as in right clicking on the window, clicking "tabs on top" and ticking "menu bar"?
[h2]BECAUSE THAT HAS BEEN THERE SINCE 4.0 WAS RELEASED[/h2]
[QUOTE=Matrix374;30223795]Did XP raped your childhood or something[/QUOTE]
XP is ten years old, did you expect software released half an internet ago (WWW was released 1991) to still be supported?
[QUOTE=Matrix374;30223795]Did XP raped your childhood or something[/QUOTE]
People still on XP rapes my inner child.
XP WAS good. Then Vista came. Then it was shit for a few months. Then Vista became better than XP but more resource hogging and slower, so okay, keep your XP Laptop users and people with little cash.
Then Windows 7 came and there was no longer any damn reason to keep tree hugging XP since it's better than it in every possible way.
Good. Now my mother will stop using IE6 soon
[QUOTE=Mezmer;30220669]"As a result, from 1 August, Google will only support what it calls "modern browsers". By this it means the latest versions and major prior releases of Chrome, Firefox, Internet Explorer and Safari."
Opera?
I'm going to be so pissed off if they stop supporting Opera[/QUOTE]
Google don't support Opera at all and they never have so nothing is changing

Now my school will be forced to upgrade browsers! Hooray.

No its shit and we pity you

Yet you could afford XP 10 years ago?
[QUOTE=killover;30225223]You're just mad because it's better than your fancy Win7 and Vista.[/QUOTE]
I'm mad and sad because you actually believe it's better than Windows 7.
[QUOTE=killover;30225223]You're just mad because it's better than your fancy Win7 and Vista.[/QUOTE]
haha what
Win XP was good, but this thing is +10 years old. Now, Win Seven is much much better than XP.
I can understand if you can't really afford it for now, but otherwise you are an idiot.
[QUOTE=Instant Mix;30224723]Then I realised I can't afford Windows 7[/QUOTE]
Then you realised you should get a job
Now they should block IE8. Force people to upgrade and suppport new web standards.
This is great, but the only thing I'm worried about is that this schmancy new web stuff is going to murder my 3 GB/month bandwidth.

There's a difference between shit and outdated.
This is bad news for my VM with Windows 98 SE & Firefox 2.

I hope your power keeps going out, that way you have to reset your clock on XP every time.
Good. Watching my school using (yet) Internet explorer 6 to watch Youtube videos is just a pain in my eyes.
[QUOTE=KillaGunna24;30221062]But the latest Firefox SUCKS. It's a Chrome ripoff. If I wanted Chrome, I'd use Chrome. Which I sorta do for my porn browsing.
Oh well, I'll have to be using other browsers soon I guess.[/QUOTE]
WHAT?! It looks like good ol' firefox :v:

I got it for free.

Wait, you can watch YouTube at your school? O_o On topic: The only reason I kinda hate this news is because my shitty-ass laptop, an iBook G4 which is woefully outdated, is pretty much forced to become a paperweight when I can't afford to replace it. Other than that, I totally support this. Being a luddite is one thing, but clinging to old tech, unless you're either a retrocomputing nerd like me or a person who can't afford to upgrade, is just plain douchebaggery.

It'll be phased out around June 20th, since that's when Firefox 5 is expected to come out.
Edit: Also, as mentioned, Tabs On Top + Menu Bar = old layout

Anyway I can change the Open in new tab to be second in the right click list again? And is there a way to have a permanent status bar instead of the weird status div that pops up whenever you mouse over something?

I may be wrong here but im pretty sure windows 7 is more of a resource hog than windows xp is just to include an abundance of features people rarely ever use.While i agree people should update when they are able not everyone has computers that will benefit from upgrading. That being said i still have 7 on my new computer but my old gaming rig still runs xp because of the lack of RAM.
