resopalrabotnick Posted September 10, 2005 CID Share Posted September 10, 2005 I dwnloaded FF 1.5 Beta 1 yesterday. I had to unstall it. It's not compatible with almost all of my plug-ins/ad-ons. I will download it when it's public though. sounds just as bad as linux as a desktop operating system. always scrounging around for updates, drivers, apps. ms, no worries.

fred Posted September 11, 2005 CID Share Posted September 11, 2005 I like any of them that don't crash they all have their draw backs and desired features personally I have found FF to load the fastest and IE to be a pain in the #$%^ with it being a part of the os as in, send reports to bill about errors what are they doing practicing medicine I thought that the computer industry on the whole was an exact science who knows just a thought any how, what about a blank shell and a search engine that can't wait, type in a website and go straight there no need of a home page print option, mail, ect.ect. the browser is so redundant any way. We all have programs that we go to, to achieve the same ends, in other words they all eat up systems resources and it seems there should be an easier way???
