Several days ago Firefox 3 came on to the Internet scene and today I installed it on my Mac Mini and my Asus Eee PC. I have found it to be faster on both machines than either Safari or Internet Explorer (respectively).
I am running Windows XP on my Eee PC, and have been using Internet Explorer 7 as the browser on the Eee. Web browsing is probably one of my main uses of the Eee, particularly reading my RSS feeds in Google Reader. I have only briefly used Firefox 3 on the Eee, so this is a first impression report; more details will follow.
My first impression is that Firefox 3 is faster on the Eee. I also like the full screen mode and the ability to use Ctrl- and Ctrl+ to zoom in and out of a web page. I did notice, however, that when reading feeds in Google Reader full screen there is a point of using Ctrl- where text just doesn’t display.
My first impression of Firefox 3 on the Asus Eee PC is positive, and I see no reason at this time why anyone should not use it.
