So got a message in my FireFox browser saying that its out of date and must be updated (next update Firefox 8.0). I'm currently on 3.6.2.4. Looking at the big jump in versions makes me wonder whether I should just give up with FF.
My older laptop isn't necessarily the fastest (256MB RAM - 40GB HDD). Currently Firefox 3.xx requires 128MB of RAM and around 50MB of HDD space. However from Firefox 4.0 onwards it requires around 200MB of HDD space and 512MB RAM.
Because of add on incompatibility I decided to stay with the version I had. Now it turns out after using a portable version of FF8. That all my add ons are now compatible. I would upgrade but it looks like the newer versions of FF are asking for quite abit of system resources so I'll be staying with this older version. :)
Not much of a rant, but certainly not thrilled about the 512MB ram requirement...
