You are entitled  to your own opinion, but MY opinion is FF4 is a clone of Chrome. So is IE9. All of the other major browser creators have realized how awesome Chrome is, and have copied it.  tongue

FF4 looks ok, but I prefer Chrome.

Do you realize that Chrome is still a beta? I bet the final version will be EPIC!

Does Firefox have Scratch extensions?

I only use Firefox for MCC.

Otherwise I use safari for schoolwork and stuff and chrome for scratch and games.

Cause on chrome, scratch is my homepage and I have tons of apps and extensions.

FF4 should work with most extensions.  It now lets you have 'tab groups' and 'app tabs'.  As far as i know, the scratch extensions should work if they are designed for Firefox.

What are those?

If you are talking about 'app tabs' they are permanent tabs.  If you mean extensions, well go research them.  If you mean scratch extensions. which i am assuming, they are extensions made by scratchers, just like any other extensions, only designed specifically for Scratch, and the use of scratch  wink

'app tabs' Tabs you can set to open whenever you start ff4.  They will also be [[img]] rather than [[img] Scratch]

Right click on a bar up the top. And uncheck tabs on top. Check Menu Bar and it will look like 3.6 (The navigation toolbar buttons won't change but I assume you can download a 3.6 version toolbar.

Re: Firefox 4.0

Now I like FF4. The moving tabs are really cool, though I can't find where to open saved tab groups.  hmm  Or is that not what they are for?
