Re: Firefox 5 released
There doesn't seem to any great innovations with this version other than a lot of bug fixes and the reports I have read are saying that some addons are lagging behind.
http://www.computing.co.uk/ctg/revie...ozilla-firefox
http://blog.mozilla.com/addons/2011/...tibility-bump/
So I'm waiting a few days to see what is reported back by the more adventurous Firefox users

Agreed; the windows/linux firefox is hideous; no doubt a biased opinion but I think the mac one looks much better.

Re: Firefox 5 released
Seeing as you lot have shown that your systems didn't collapse and die I have now installed FF5. It must be fasted update I have ever done. Less than 45 seconds and only my Amazon Wishlist add-on has failed.

It just looks like a Safari clone.
