Thripp Sun, 02 Mar 2008 16:10:09 +0000 http://richardxthripp.thripp.com/a-word-on-firefox-144#comment-230 Thanks for the suggestion. I don't use Macintosh, but I hear that <a href="http://www.wired.com/gadgets/mac/commentary/cultofmac/2007/06/cultofmac_0612" rel="nofollow">Safari is on Windows</a> now too. It doesn't have the extensibility of Firefox, unfortunately (I use plugins such as <a href="https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/3863" rel="nofollow">IMacros</a> and <a href="https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/748" rel="nofollow">Greasemonkey</a>). I've resolved to keep complaining about Firefox for now; the slowness only happens after having a lot of tabs open for several hours, so it's probably a memory leak in the software rather than my computer or plugins (all the plugins I use are quite popular), because I read others <a href="http://www.google.com/search?q=firefox+sluggish" rel="nofollow">complaining too</a>.

It passes the Acid 2 test, and generally starts up faster than FireFox. I would reccomend Safari to you. It passes the Acid 2 test, and generally starts up faster than FireFox.
