Firefox is my favorite browser, but compared to other browsers it has
got some drawbacks and not only advantages.
It's very typically for all versions of Firefox I ever used, that if
e.g. the Internet connection is slow for a while, you sometimes can't
switch to another tab, to read something. Sometimes it's hard or
impossible to do anything, from time to time you only can reset the
computer.
People with 56k modems and ISDN might notice that other browser are much
faster and even when sorting the history other browser are much faster
on slow computers.
