Firefox 4 Beta 7. Woah

Firefox users listen up: The new beta is out and its amazing. For all 26% of internet users, there is finally an answer for all those google chrome users. The new beta is CRAZY fast. It makes my old 2.0 Ghz macbook fast again. The new Jagermonkey JIT compiler is MAD affective. Loads java in no time, and every other internet function gets a power boost as well. Better HTML 5, CSS, and java advancements allow you to waste time on the internet better and faster than ever, and firefox 4 brings the death of plugins in sight. Awesome HTML 5 and hardware acceleration makes firefox a gaming monster and now has the ability to satisfy your video and graphical needs. BOOM firefox is usable again.
The only problem is that a lot of extensions don't work. Out of my 47 extensions, only 14 were supported. But firefox does handle some of the missing links:
New tab management with tab groups
Moves tabs to the top of the window right above the URL bar allowing for more screen space and valuable browsing real estate
Full screen browsing make the web fill your entire world and engulf you in internet awesomeness
Super improved gaming and flash performance

What even cooler is that if you are a test pilot extention user, then you get awesome integration. There's a convenient feedback button that will give you the option to say "Firefox made me happy because.." and "Firefox mad me sad because...". You are the teleported to another tab with either a smiley face or a sad face. you can tell mozilla what their doing right or wrong. You can even give them the URL of a website that really shows what their doing right or wrong
Really cool. Go download it now! like now. do it dude.
