I just tried all flavors of the so called best browser, the great Firefox.. On Windows this is the pits, ugly as sin, blurry fonts, ugly tabs, about 3 ins. long.. The only good thing are the extensions, even then, Chrome is catching up.. Instead of having , Nightly, Aurora, Beta 5, the should put their efforts into making a good looking browser..I don't want to make this into a Mac versus Windows but on Mac everything is uniformed , no blurry fonts.. This use to be my favorite browser, no more.. Try Chrome, faster (not much) , everything is neat and uniformed
Attached Image: Capture.PNG no square ugly tabs.. Firefox, please get your act together, you use to be much better..

I've been running nightly build 7.01 on one laptop jram. The only plugin that did not work for me was Fast Dial. It's faster than 4 though. Different perspective an all between windows and linux and mac users though.

Fonts can always be changed, at least for me. Your screenshot though looks like my Iron Browser instead of Firefox.

I was fooling around with all 3, didn't like any on Windows.. It seems like the tool bar is pushed together
All my extensions worked.. I installed nightly tester tools, it's much faster than 3.0 .. It might be my Windows laptop, crappy resolution, my Mac is 1920 by 1200, my Windows is a lot smaller even though it's 17.3 in display.. I didn't think of that when I bought it. Oh well, at least Chrome looks good.
