    I disagree, I was able to do an in-browser update from 3.6.15 without any issues.

    Is it just me who doesn't care which browser is faster, currently looking at firefox 4, click a link and blink and its there.

    I won't dispute the figures, but does it actually make a difference?

    Still love the add-ons of firefox too much to move.

    Likewise, I in-browser upgraded after posting.

    I'm not surprised that Firefox 4 has been well received. To me, Firefox is the best all-rounder; the add-ons, the menu bar and the drop-down URL bar are all features I use very heavily that either don't have the functionality I want, or are totally missing, in both IE and Chrome.
