OK, not really - but pretty close. After Mozilla released some mockups of what FF 4 might look like, someone felt compelled to try and mimic the look and feel of it. Here's a screenshot of my setup with a customized Aero theme - http://s755.photobucket.com/albums/x...urrent=ff4.png
Here are the instructions:

I did it out of curiosity.

I couldn't be bothered finding and installing a xp theme so that it looks half decent.
Looks kind of cool. I might give that a whirl.
Opera RULES !
:D :D :D :D :D
Couple of powerusing Firefox hints
1. If you have firefox 3.5 or 4 thats works ok but links do no open up in Thunderbird, add this to the /usr/bin/firefox script(linux):
unset LD_PRELOAD
2. Adobe Flash: If you view Youtube full-screen videos or any full-screen video using this java plugin and it crashes the browser cold, disable hardware acceleration in flash settings. Those idiots thinks everyone has a $500 videocard installed.
I mentioned this because someone on this board figured 3.5 is buggier than 3.0.x
Four... at this point they're in a race to get the highest number of revisions.
When most other browsers have been around since the mid-90s and haven't even hit a "version ten" mark yet.
Maybe they're taking a play from RedHat? Remember when Slackware went from 4 to 7? It was because other versions would release like 1.0 then 1.2 and then 2.0 and so on where most would do like 1.1 1.2 1.3 1.4 and so on instead.Quote:

These notation systems are not consistent, and I can see open source as being different. After all it looks better on your CV/Resume to say 4 rather than 3.5.3? :p
I don't think I'd put 3.5.3 on a Resume. I do think after some point they need to up a version number, as "sofware package 1.3.2.3.4.2.1.2A" is a waste of space, and I've probably got some form of software or another where it has multiple numbers. Just not printed ones. I can't imagine any company trying to sell software on a shelf somewhere wanting to print a box that has what looks to be a phone number on it as a version numbering system.
3.5.4 should be out October 21.
It looks like they are going to go with 3.6 next instead of 4.0 though. though that can still change. 3.6 alpha was released last month.
They need to finish up fennec though. I can't even get it to start up on a q9c.
It reminds me of people skinning things to look like XP or Vista before the release. Why wait and see the real thing?
For some reason that project seems to have distinctly favoured Nokia kit rather than stuff running Windows Portable, like Motorola?Quote:

Last time I came across it, it was still in alpha for that platform.
OH well!..................time to try running it on my PC................
You know I just love format and reinstall :D
Nihil... for some reason, a lot of projects that start for windows portable end up favoring Nokia. No idea why though.
