1188795 2011-03-23 22:15:00 Got it - don't like it.

It screwed up everything I had running so-o-o nicely and now I gotta wait for all my add-ons to catch up and re-energize themselves and make my pages look like they were before ---GACK!

We are not pleased.

1188796 2011-03-23 22:23:00 FF4 seems to run ok on the laptops that i have so far installed it onto. Seems to load faster than the previous v3 versions. Have encountered no issue's at all.

Maybe it is just the way I hold my tongue.............:thumbs:

1188797 2011-03-23 22:35:00 I like it, i wonder if they are going to have to pay Opera for copying the look (it only vaguely resembles Chrome), definitely an Opera look to it.

Half my add-ons don't work, but then again i only use it for testing

1188798 2011-03-23 22:41:00 Some addons broke here as well, but most of them updated on restart and the only important addon that still doesn't work is FireFTP. (Glasser is no longer necessary :D) pcuser42 (130)
1188799 2011-03-23 22:47:00 After adjusting bits of appearance I like it.
All addons working too

colourful tabs - has it improved since ff2?, it used to just give all tabs random colours, so 2 pages on the same site had completely different colours, i uninstalled it after a day.

If its for distinguishing websites that dont have favicons, I use hash coloured tabs, which gives all pages from a website that doesn't have a favicon the same coloured favicon.

there is a build of colorfull tabs for the development version of FF4

1188802 2011-03-23 23:05:00 Just trying FF4 now. And starting to hate it with this MS forum lol. Bloody thing keeps asking if I want to leave the page or stay, everytime I reply to posts.

I wouldnt do it, it if I didnt want to, would I. Must be an annoying feature on the site. Since it didnt happen with FF 3.6

1188803 2011-03-23 23:09:00 Just installed it this morning and quite like it. I had 14 addons that weren't compatible, but all the ones I actually use are, so it was a good opportunity for an addon cull. :p

Move the tab bar back below the address bar and the bookmarks toolbar where it belongs and all is good.
