Firefox is fantastic... on Windows. I don't think there is much argument that Firefox is sorely lacking when it comes to fitting in to the OS X environment. Camino is a great alternative for those seeking a browser with the Gecko engine, but it doe 't have nearly the flexibility and expandability of true-blue Firefox. Lucky for those who wish to keep the expandability of the Fox but have a sleek Mac-like browser, Mozilla has started development on a Cocoa based version of FireFox codenamed Minefield. Being a native a lication, the Minefield will have all the goodies of a real Mac browser like native GUI objects and OS X ell checking. Before you all rush off and a ounce that this is your next main browser, keep in mind that these are early development builds, and crashes, mi ing features, and bugs all come with the territory. Ru ing Minefield from a disk image broke my dock, and I had to restart the dock proce to get it working again. [via MacUser]
