I've been a long time firefox user but have recently switched to chrome. Ever since firefox switched to the new version scheme I've found it less and less stable.

Strange, i haven't had many stability problems in years. Maybe it's your system/config?

 

[Miramonti]

It's a minor update, therefore shouldn't this qualify as version 7.0?

No problems here also.

And, oddly enough, all my favorite add-ons work. Now, if they could just get it to not suck up so much RAM...

Revoked the root certificate for DigiNotar due to fraudulent SSL certificate issuance (see bug 682927 and the security advisory)

doesn't this one change qualify for version 7.0 at the very least? if atleast 6.5. Mozilla revoked an SSL certificated no less!

And I thought it was just me with version 6.1. I still get hanging load times.

I tried Chrome, and totally hated it.

Have you had any issues?

I've been happy with 7. No issues on 3 systems.

Haha! Exactly.

More and more I'm moving over to Chrome as Firefox rapidly becomes everything I hated about IE.

In other words, the old version is more than 2 days old. Time for a new one

Haha! Exactly.

So 13 versions in 3 years is better? (actually 14 since the first version was 0.2.149)

What examples are you making up?

I can't stand the rapid update stuff. Chrome does it so much better. I do however, keep a pre beta build of firefox on my system (Aurora). Right now its version 8.0a2. I'm getting updates for it daily.
