Thanks

Full Version: firefox 03.0.03
If there is, I haven't noticed it. Unfortunately, it is still as slow as ever.

Yeah it's POS IMO. Sure it still has all the extensions that make FF great but the slowness and clunkiness are as bad as IE. I am still using FF2 but mostly using Opera.

Anthony, I do believe you've invented a new Piriform descriptive term. POSIMO.
Sort of rolls off the tongue, and sums things up in one word. I'll be using that in future.

And you'll sound so Italian using it too.

I should register that and get credit as the official creator of that acronym
Back OT, I haven't noticed any drastic changes in Firefox 3.0.3, except for certain sites not allowing the Java applet to load (ie - http://www.achaea.com/nexus/play.php ), whereas others will ( ie - java.com ). It's very odd, but, beyond that, I've noticed a memory usage drop, compared to the original 3.0 release. :shrug:
I'm minimalist in my extensions, though, and only keep what I need.

I always knew that Firefox was a POSIMO but I didn't have an acronym for it.
Lovin' IE8 beta2 on my clunky old PIII.

Firefox 2 is very good. It's 3 thats the problem and I'm sure the bugs will get worked out.
Thank you all, I think I got the idea...

How are you pronouncing it? I think it works if you pronounce it as PAUSE-EEE-MO

That "sounds" about right. As Andavari said, a touch of Italy.Do you realize, this will start appearing on other forums worldwide. Just you watch.

It was quite by accident to. I posted POS IMO as two separate acronyms not even thinking that it could be one

You could always use it under your avatar.
It will spread like wildfire.

It will spread like wildfire. That would be funny. I am looking around in my controls but I don't see where to do that. I see where to make it a signature (which I might) but not where to add it under my avatar.

My Controls -> Edit Profile Information
then you can input it under Custom member title.
