Thank God for freedom to customize and those who provide it. Imagine what computing would be like if the government was in charge, or the liberal elite dictated what is best for us. Firefox is an example of what an customizing community can do within the boundaries of proper coding, and God did not make us all clones.
Maybe I’m missing something here .. I read this thread from top to bottom and I have only one question.. Why? There isn’t one instance cited as to this being any sort of an improvement or of this giving additional functionality .. all I’m seeing is people obsessed with having the latest toys and listing ways to fix it’s shortcomings so that it works as well as the old stuff.
You’ll never get those hours/days back that you spend fixing this thing up.
What’s this obsession with a frigging OS all about anyway ... it’s the apps that matter ... nobody ever wrote a proposal with Windows XP they used an office suite... or coded anything with Vista ,, they used a language and a compiler ... The OS just needs to be stable , allocate memory for you and control dataset/database access.
