| and web applications, found that 55% of early adopters favour Firefox. 
| Internet Explorer - commonly regarded as the world's most widely-used web 
| browser - came behind Chrome in all territories apart from Asia.

Firefox 3.6 Alpha 1 Blows Version 3.5 Out Of The Water

,----[ Quote ]
| Using SunSpider, a JavaScript benchmark, the score for 3.6 Alpha 1 improved
| significantly over 3.5.; version 3.6 benchmarked at 1107.2 ms vs. the 1517.4

Mozilla Releases Firefox 3.6 Alpha, Codenamed 'Namoroka'

,----[ Quote ]
| Currently few add-ons are available for this alpha, the other ones are
| compatible only with 3.5 and older releases (which is normal given that 3.6
| is only in alpha and it won't be available until late 2009). The popular
| extension Adblock Plus can be installed in 3.6 at the time of writing,
| however popular themes or add-ons like Greasemonkey or Noia 2.0 eXtreme are
| not available yet.
