7.1 million downloads within first 24 hours for Firefox 4, still fail to overshadow Firefox 3 record

Mozilla CEO Gary Kovacs has announced the official final stats of the Firefox 4’s download for the first 24 hours. Firefox 4’s launch day seem quite successful, with 7.1 million downloads around the globe, inclusive of three million users which are already running the release candidate for Firefox 4. Of course, they are already updated to the final release. In contrast, Firefox 3 had eight million downloads on its first day of debut. Firefox 4 already had about 2 percent share of the browser market which is about double of what IE9 can claim thus far. Of course, Firefox 4 opens on a wider set of platforms whereas IE9 doesn’t even support XP.

    Yeah because FF4 looks like freaking Chrome, if I liked Chromes layout I would download Chrome :( I hate they tampered with the layout like this, I want the old one back.
