Â*Â*Â*Â*Considering that I do not really believe that MSFT has actually
"improved" my "Computer user experience" with Win7, and the number of
complaints I've read about Win8, I am not exactly eager to see what it
considers "new and improved" in WinX.

I'd say that it's noticeably better than Win 8, but that isn't saying
much. Win 7 is still a lot better than either.

Firefox isn't a perfect browser, but it seems to be the least bad of them.



"The least bad" is what all design is about.

That's life.



My view is somewhat different. We all have different likes and
dislikes and do what we do in different ways. So a browser (or any
other kind of software) that I might call perfect is one that you
might find terrible, or vice-versa).

So the manufacturer of a browser (or any other kind of software)
either designs it for what it thinks the majority wants, or else
designs it as a compromise between the many different views of what is
perfect. The result is that nothing is perfect for everyone.

So I agree with Mark Lloyd that "Firefox isn't a perfect browser, but
it seems to be the least bad of them." Of all the browsers I've tried
(and I've tried most, if not all, of them) FireFox is the closest one
to being perfect. But if I were in charge of designing it, I would
make several improvements that would get it much closer to what *I*
would consider perfection.

If I got those "improvements" made, would everyone think it was closer
to perfection? No, of course not. There are those people (and I know
several such people) who think Chrome (ugh!) is much better than
FireFox, and even those who think Edge (double ugh!) is the best of
them all. We're all different.
