Today I installed Firefox 4 Beta 6 on my MacBook Pro and a Dell Precision Workstation running Windows 7 Enterprise.
My initial impressions are favorable. The user interface has been revised and is now somewhat Google Chromeish. The default toolbars are minimalist and tabs are displayed on top the address bar, rather than below it. I prefer having the tabs below the address bar so I'm happy to see that it remains an option.
Compared with Firefox 3.6, FF4B6 seems to load pages faster on both OS 10.6 and Win7. This may in part be due to some of my extensions not being supported in FF4 yet. However, FF4 is supposed to offer speed improvements.
I used FF4B6 for most of the day and didn't run into any noticeable issues. We'll see how it goes with more use but so far I'm pleased with it.
