Potato slow.

Whoopsie. Guess Opera improved the tab feature.

There was a time that after 4 tabs all following tabs came into a drop-down menu. That's why I left it after a while.

Seems like I need to give it another chance. *has dled latest portable version*

Anyway, the thing all other browsers are inferior to Firefox are add-ons. Apart from Flock maybe, there doesn't exist any browser that you can customize as Firefox.

What is your point?

It is just a web browser like any other.

If I had a car and I could custamize it then I would because I would want to look good in my car, but if I have a web browser then all I need is a decent GUI because no one is going to look at your web browser and go "Wow, he has such a nice web browser"

It's not for looking good, it's for several time-saving features.

Bookmark sync saves me from putting the darn bookmarks on a USB stick (over 1000 or something)

Password encrypting with a main password that grants access to all others; saves me from reminding over 30 different passwords (and making up new ones)

Another one: Double click on a tab sends you to that tab and closes the one you were looking at.

A tree (drop-down) menu for quick-saving files.

Ad blocking

Java-script blocking improves security, prevents Google peeking into my behaviours and saving bandwidth

Some other GUI changes that save me time.

In any way, on the long run I can't go without some of these addons.

UPDATE: Opera lags me to nuts on YouTube. *Bye, bye, love you...*[fade]

Ah, yes. The browser debate.

I usually find being kicked around with speed pointless. I think everyone here can wait 5 seconds longer, unless if your day is an hour. So it's Firefox alright.

Also, nobody will ever beat Firefox's awesome customization. I can make sure the site I'm going is trusted, experiment with the website's HTML and what-not, check my tabs in 3D and more.

I have a game called HL2 Deathmatch. Personally, I was tired looking at the regular SMG, Pistol, Magnum, Gravity gun, RPG, grenade, and other stuff. So I downloaded new skins (mods that change how the gun looks). Now, nobody but me can see me shoot my Ak-47, all they can see is me using a regular old SMG, or whatever mod they installed, but I still feel bad-[Please Talk Properly] when I pwn a minge-bag newb with a Russian gun. Because in Soviet Russia, gun shoots you.

To re-cap: Preference is everything, having the ability to customize is win, and nobody has made a decent S.L.A.M. skin.

1) Preference is everything.

2) Having the ability to customize is win.

1) I agree 100%

2) But it is not always needed.

That's like saying "Well, I could get this alarm clock that doubles as a radio/speaker that costs 10 dollars, but no, I rather get this Alarm Clock that does nothing but tell time and beep for the SAME PRICE"

And according to my new policy, you're a communist.

Has anyone mentioned yet that the page it loaded was cached, meaning it didn't have to load anything at all. Also he didn't state that the potato had to be cooked prior to the test starting, he just said faster then a potato. So if the match was between Opera(un-cached website) and the falling potato.... I put my money on the potato.

Ol Cyrem is just lookin for things to hate. You seem to ignore that they might be right next to the cable box, and have a tremendous connection speed. It's a joke Cyrem. Quit being a h8er.

Not being a hater, all browsers would be slower then the potato.

That is why I use a potato powered web browser called spud-net
