    Anyone know what sort of performance hit there is running the current Firefox release under Rosetta? I mean, do the Flash ads stutter or anything?

    I hear the companies using spyware are up in arms and threatening a boycott if they don't improve spyware support in Firefox under Rosetta. The upload performance is so poor it just isn't worth infecting Intel Macs. They're hoping the final release of the Intel Mac Firefox will resolve this issue.

    Flash and Java support are NOT minor bugs.

    Flash and Java support are MAJOR bugs.
