Firefox 4 will be a "generation" faster than rivals

This craze for faster and faster browsers is getting a bore. This is going the same way as the gas and electricity prices; someone is always saying they are cheaper!

Im waiting for the announcement that "Our browser will load tomorrows surfing pages TODAY!"

The coders time would be better spent in solving the the problems in loading some pages at all-never mind speed!
if you cant do something nice-do nothing!

Indeed, but as fast as they plug holes, someone digs another.
