Firefox

Mikeaugustleo reviewed on 24 Nov 2011
I have to say that after an extended fondness for Firefox, and having used it as my main browser for a couple of years, something odd has started happening. I've noticed since v8 and inluding 8.01 that FF seems to stall more and more when rendering webpages. I'm no techie but when I launch Safari for the same sites there's no issue. It's happening enough for me to return to Safari as my browser until I can try a new version of FF down the track.

I'm happy with the software. I run a very small business and it's been a good way of keeping track of expenses and income. When I started using it the developer was very helpful in assisting me to set things up.

Hi Phaleron...you can disable that feature. Go to Preference > Advanced > When Updates to FF are Found...I'm sure that will alleviate your anxiety. Cheers!

A bit surprised to read a review of FF7 involving crashing all the time. I've been using it for about three weeks as my main browser and I think it's crashed once. I'm using a 2010 MacBook Pro and Lion. I'm liking FF7 for it's speed. My only gripe is the Read It Later add-on isn't compatible. But what do you get for using a beta?!

I've been looking for a way Safari could do this, so this little app suits me fine, even though it's not Safari based and sits in the menu bar.

It does that very well and clearly. It's stable so far.

Radium

Mikeaugustleo reviewed on 26 Mar 2011
This is such a great app allowing me to enjoy radio from around the world. My one complaint: I have a network made up of a couple of airport expresses and the sound from Radium isn't synchronized across the network meaning my mMcbook and my lounge room speakers can't be on at the same time, unlike when I'm listening to music with iTunes.

Camino

Mikeaugustleo reviewed on 22 Mar 2011
I've been playing around with browsers these last few days: Firefox, Safari, Opera and now Camino.

Overall, I'm currently sticking with Camino because it renders all of the sites I need correctly. Suddenly, after using the Firefox betas for a few months and rarely having issues I suddenly can't use internet banking with RC2. Safari looks good but is just a bit slower than the others. I just don't get Opera - every time I use it a number of pages are just a mess.

So, going back to Camino - a browser I used to use a lot and glad that it's being worked on still. It does lack some features and nifty add-ons that the others have but it does render pages quickly and correctly most of the time.

2010 MacBook Pro here.

Wow, what a difference to using Word. Clear, simple, easy on the eye and simple to use. I like it!

Firefox

Mikeaugustleo reviewed on 26 Jan 2011
I've tried most of the browsers for Mac and find that Firefox works the most consistently re. websites and has a good number of useful add-ons.

I'd like to use Safari but it lacks features. Opera - I'd really like to like it but every single time I've used it I come across sites that simply display terribly and I end up scratching my head and thinking, how come? Chrome is fast but, again, I come across sites (my work's Oracle web-based email system) that don't display correctly. On that front, Firefox and Camino are the only browsers that work.

My only gripe is that it 'feels' like Firefox is heavy, bloated and not overly snappy.

In the end, Firefox is what I currently go with.
