Well, folks, this is what we've all been waiting for. For a long, long time at that. Mozilla has released a preview of Firefox 1.0! Yay!
Reaction #1: Marc still wants the mac specific theme back. If anyone knows where to find it, please please pretty please say so!
I know I'm late on this; I've known about it since the day after it came out (which would have been late anyway) but here I am, finally talking about it.
It should be noted that I have not been in the physical presence of one of these machines. Haven't yet had the opportunity. But none the less I do have a bit of an opinion. A mixed opinion at that.
Let's face it. This interview talks about a lot of things and almost all of them are great. I appreciate the weight, the ease of movement, the ease of access, the power, the sleekness.
But I have to be honest with you all. The design is just not my favorite piece of apple's work. I enjoyed the last iMac design very much. My favorite bit was the arm, the ability to swing that monitor in any direction so coworkers or family members could see what I was looking at. I always found that to be innovative, pretty, and just plain great.
So there's my general opinion. I know, I'm being brief. But I can't do a proper review on something I haven't seen in person.
