Both of which, is awesome because I can't live without my plugins. Especially adblock+. Which actually blocks the ads, instead of just hiding them like Chromes version. It also blocks a lot of flash ads including ads in youtube videos, etc... Here are some brief comments about it from people trying it out, comparing it to chrome etc:

i got it earlier for the mac. it does seem lighter and faster than 3.5. i assume you are using AdBlocker to block all the ads? mine is customized and blocks every ad for any site i have ever visited. chrome may be fast but is it wholly insecure. the geniuses at google are great at compiling ad word logarithms but not so much so at programming code for os/browsers. security and stability always trump over speed. i mean who the fuck ever worried about an extra .1000th of a millisecond. only if you work for the military, stock-trading consortium or emergency services. my main problems with firefox are twofold: resource management and the ability to save image file types correctly. i have found on two wallpaper sites in particular that images sometimes get corrupted and i have to use Safari to save the images.
but for secure transactions nothing ouches the fox.
i am curious what you guys/ladies think of these themes. i have been playing with a few of them and while they are kinda cool looking i'm not sure that they aren't too distracting.
strangely enough typed in safari.

I'm having a hard time picking a persona to stick with. I laughed out loud though when i saw they had an awesome face one.
temuchin:
back into firefox.. let's see..... i found a anime one.
they should offer a "laughing man" one. i am partial towards the abstract, music and retro ones.
quite a lot of them are absolute artistic tragedies.
Natheria:
Yeah a couple of them are pretty bad. There not even centered correctly, or the picture is stretched to fit the frame and looks terrible. :-\
And there's a couple of laughing man ones. Only 2 that are decent. I really love This one.
