Firefox 4 Release Candidate Released. (And a poll about browser usage)

So, who's going to be upgrading to Firefox 4? Any IE or Chrome converts?

I personally use Chrome right now but I'm giving FF4 a good college try before I make a decision.

I will when FF3 tells me its time to update - version 3.6.15 atm, otherwise if an update to FF4 is not available, will probably DL at a later time.

I voted Firefox. Firefox FTW! Always.

I very much dislike Chrome. When I use it I get the same feeling as from Apple products - "OK enough with the kid's toy, gimme a grown-up computer!"

Using FF4 beta 12 at the mo, still got some issues to iron out but, hey, what's not released with issues nowadays?

Just downloaded the RC - we'll see how it goes.

As for the other browsers, I've tried Opera - didn't like it - even mini on my phone wasn't great! IE I only use when a site dictates that I must (systemrequirementslab and MS online training sites!). Chrome - well, as much as I love Google for their search engine, translation, and their Android OS, it's their data-capturing I'm not keen on ('accidently' collecting wi-fi data whilst taking pics for street view? Or the time I looked up the correct use of a colon, or semi-colon and Google Adwords here decided to give me links to colonoscopy, colonic irrigation, etc.)

FF through-and-through, but Dolphin-Mini on my phone.

Edit: FF4RC is, after the first couple of slow pages, absolutely flying though sites!!! It's great, although Personas don't show as much as they used to. Just downloaded latest McAfee Siteadvisor so now need to reboot - ciao!

Using FF4 beta since v 5. It's been pretty stable for me all of the way through. I'm pretty happy with it so far.

If you feel like that about Chrome and enjoy FF3, I think FF4 is going to feel much the same way as Chrome to you. When I booted up FF4 for the first time, I said to myself, "Well, hey, this isn't much more different than Chrome now."
