Do you realize that sometimes firefox takes up more memory then windows XP does?

There is no excuse for that.

I dunno, FF is probably more capable than XP. =) But If you think you can do it better, be my guest; the source is available for anyone to clone and fork.

Deving web pages with 5 browsers and dozens of tabs open is quite taxing nowdays. Anything less than an i7 with 12GB of RAM isn't enough!!!

I tried Aurora 7, but youtube constantly crashes it. Going to try 6 beta 2 see how that works out.
