It has pros and cons, Firefox too has the native look and feel without
using the native controls, so it saves on the overhead of tons of GDI
handles and can render the entire GUI in cairo.
I use FF a lot and umm...no it doesn't. Not remotely. It's always stood
out as every bit of a blatant GTK app as GAIM, GIMP, or Thunderbird. As
soon as I can find a browser with equivilents too all my essential hacks
(*cough* extensions) and *real* controls (which rules out IE and Opera.
And Chrome/Safari... AH HA HA HA!), then I'm ditching this garbage.
Are you talking about FF 3.5? It's a really poor product. Crashes all the
time, has some terrible UI misfeatures. I'm really amazed they shipped it
in that condition.
Never touched FF3.5, I tried FF3 and it was such a worthless POS I went back
to FF2, which is still a total POS, or course, but at least this way I have
separate back/forward dropdowns, winestripe actually works, and I have no
awfulbar *without* needing an anti-awfulbar addon (mozilla's standard
strategy: force idiotic ill-conceived changes on everyone and rely on
third-party add-on hacks for anyone who wants it fixed).
Um, so why are you still using FF at all? :)
