"I really wish they would slim down firefox. With about five tabs open the memory use climbs over 100mb. This is unacceptable."You probably need to adjust your memory cache in the user.js file. With 5 tabs open (only google), Mine uses around 50mb. If you have a bunch of fancy sites open, FF will cache all the graphics and stuff to memory. The default memory cache value is obscene.
Isn't Mozilla rushing FF's development? It seems to me that skipping from 1.1 to 1.5 in light of IE7's future release is a bit suspicious. (Make the browser appear more mature for example)
Why would mozilla be afraid of IE 7?It only works on Windows xp/vista even when 54% of business still use windows 2000. That's a giant market.It's still not very standards compliant and web developpers hate it.They are gaining market share like crazy.
