"Still slower than Chrome & Opera"
Version: Mozilla Firefox 8 beta 8.0b5
Pros
Firefox has been my browser of choice for many years now, & most of the things I liked before are still there for me to like.
Cons
This version & version 7 both slow down the operation of my PC to a painful degree, while Chrome & Opera still work at blazing speeds. This latest version of Beta 8 is a slight improvement over its immediate predecessor, but it can still take forever to make connections.
Summary
Chrome has been my default browser since the Firefox 7 slowdown & will remain so unless Firefox can get back to its former speed level.

"Still has problems"
Version: Mozilla Firefox 8 beta 8.0b5
Pros
Easy to upgrade
Cons
Firefox still has not fixed its problems with loading all JPEGs on a site. Originally thought that this upgrade would solve the previous problem but did not. Unfortunately not my favorite any more.

"Not a happy camper"
Version: Mozilla Firefox 8 beta 8.0b5
Pros
Just a good as v 7
Cons
Lost my Norton Toolbar when I upgraded to v8.0b5 beta. The same thing happened to me when I upgraded to v 7 beta. I will have to remember NOT to upgrade to a beta version.
Summary
Wait till the finial version comes out.
