Tag Team Brawl: Firefox & Thunderbird vs. Internet Exploer and Outlook

[K.C.]

I've been a Firefox fan for years now. Absolutely blows away Internet Explorer.

Today, though, I switched from Microsoft Outlook to Thunderbird to manage my 800 e-mails accounts.

I have to say, I am really enjoying the layout of Thunderbird. Mozilla in general destroys Microsoft in the whole web experience. Video loading time, web page loading time, and the lag and bulkiness of running Outlook is gone with Thunderbird.

Even just breaking it down by superficiality, the Mozilla stuff looks better.



And by the way, I tried out the Windows version of Safari....BRUTAL!

I'm looking forward to the release of Firefox 3.0 (I don't bother with betas)

I recently restored my laptop, which means I had to re-load everything back on, but before I did that, I tried the Beta.

It's got promise, and looks like when they work out the kinks, stuff will load lightning fast.

It's significantly visually different, from what I remember, though.

Not necessarily bad, just a somewhat different layout....that's generally the case with the browser updates anyway.

I don't use it on my personal computer, but the beta was installed on my work computer for a while and it was REALLY fast.

Exaggeration.

But I have five or six I need to use on a regular basis.

i used a PC with firefix 3 beta on it and it was really quick. i am looking forward to faster loading webpages, that way it will make paying for highspeed internet even that much better

Plus 3.0 is supposed to finally fix those damn Firefox memory leaks.

I didn't know their was a beta out. So far it's good, but where are the back and forward buttons?

i've never used thunderbird. I like the mac mail client well enough.
I use outlook a work, but i've never been a big fan.
