Firefox is getting the sand kicked in it's face on silicon beach performance-wise, there's no denying. I choose to stick with it for general useage and banking purposes because of the plugins (configurability), cross-platform familiarity and security model. But increasingly I find myself switching for some specific uses such as gaming etc. This change in release numbering to match Googles is a fool's errand since it does little to attract new users that empirically see that it's sluggish regardless, but it is doing a great deal to alienate Mozilla's core users for several reasons already cited. Please stop it and revert to the old, trusted model that saw Firefox grab a significant portion of the market share!

From the Wikipedia article:
"This was French spacing—a term synonymous with single space sentence spacing .....Double spacing, or placing two spaces between sentences (sometimes referred to as English spacing)......."

GOD SAVE THE QUEEN!

Trouble in China followed by the two principals cashing in stock? Something's going down.

Whilst Foxit is an improvement over Adobe's bloatware on Windows, if you want to really go light and lean try an open source alternative.
