Pages load much faster, type displays infinitely better, and the new, neutral design is a lot easier on the eyes. Highly recommended.
While I'm at it, there's a wonderful little firefox add-on I'd recommend for those who need to keep an eye on the weather, called forecastfox, which displays a chronically updated, several days' worth of weather forecast in the footer. It helps me to know when I need to get out and water thoroughly, for ex. [like right now], but it's a good, discrete, all-purpose weather predictor.
Bonne soirée de Paris, où il fait très beau. .
And here in Switzerland it is also great weather! :-)
But the first impression is, Loefing was right, it is an improvement.
Which is a good thing.
