My parents had to upgrade my Packard Bell from 2MB to 6MB of RAM after I spent all of my savings ($99) on Central Point SoftwareвЂ™s PC Tools only to find out it wouldnвЂ™t run on 2MB of ram. I canвЂ™t help but imagine all the bugs IвЂ™m living with now (whether I run into them or not) that have been fixed in a newer version.

Even if IвЂ™m perfectly happy with a piece of software IвЂ™ve been using successfully for a long time, as soon as a newer version comes out, I lose it. No matter how many times I upgrade a piece of software only to find that the latest version is no better, or is worse than the previous versions, I still feel the need to upgrade. Since FF has a glacially slow release cycle, I imagine something better will be along in a month or two but for now I find FF 4 meets my needs and since I'm using xmarks, the next switch should be uneventful.Acts of Volition I have an irrational and interminable need to upgrade. I've since used session manager in FF to save 40+ tabs in 4 or 5 tab groups without issue. I found that the session manager in Chrome epic failed when I tried to save a session with multiple tabs in multiple windows. Whenever I view a video or view flash content, I close the affected tab or reload the tab without enabling flash and I find I can cruise along with several dozen tabs without penalty. I use flashblock and it keeps FF from growing without bounds with all that flash on all 40+ of my tabs running in background.

When FF 4 came out, I gave it a try and I now use it exclusively. One positive is that I stopped relying on FF sync and started using xmarks so I could easily 'take everything with me' next time I switched browsers. I switched to Chrome but found it made formatting 'mistakes' in at least half a dozen of my favorite sites. I had trouble with FF 3.6 and it crashed on me taking 90 minutes of work with it. I want development on this browser to continue. I'm going to write to the developers and tell them how much I appreciate their efforts. What a relief compared to my Safari experience this morning. It's got such a small footprint, is so fast, and has some very interesting, unique features (check them out) that it's really silly to not keep it, even if it turns out that I don't use it as my default browser. There were several times I used it when my internet connection got throttled back or I was otherwise having trouble with other browsers being too slow, or just wanted to quickly launch to check something.

it is faster than any browser I have ever used (on Mac or PC), and I've used just about all of them.Д«efore I reformatted and installed Snow Leopard I had Stainless on my MacBook. Takes about as long to load the whole app as it does to open a new tab (blank tab with no content) in Safari.

Update: just installed Stainless and thought I'd give an update on memory usage. Has anyone else tried Stainless? I'd love to hear your thoughts on Chrome vs Stainless as far as speed, memory usage (especially with multiple tabs), stability. But that's okay, since all those features usually come at a cost. It's not yet at version 1 but I've found it to be stable, and it's good enough though not feature-rich. I've also just downloaded Stainless again ( ), it opens each tab in a separate session similar to Chrome. I didn't find it particularly stable, and I hate the way they have had to implement 1Password due to Chrome extension restraints. I don't like Chrome that much, but I do always work with lots of tabs open. I've got work to do, so this is my little side-task this morning, finding something better. I'm waiting for a couple of minutes while typing a short, simple plain text email while the rainbow is spinning. I simply launch it and it affects everything else. I'm not sure why but just today Safari is unbearable and it's freezing my whole system.
