Firefox Browser Upgrade Unless It

You should be able to use your Apple gear as long as it helps you remain productive and meets your needs, upgrading only as necessary.

At that point, Mac users using OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard, 10.7 Lion, and 10.8 Mountain Lion will be left behind by the current versions of Firefox.

Firefox Browser Mac OS X 10

It will be a sad day, as Firefox is the last major browser to support Mac OS X 10.6 through 10.8.

Firefox has given us Mac support longer than Googles Chrome browser, which left us behind in April 2016.

And in comparison to Apples Safari browser, Chrome and Firefox have been downright generous.

Safari 5.1.10 was the last version for OS X 10.6, and that arrived on September 12, 2013.

Safari 6.1.6, the final revision for OS X 10.7, was unleashed on August 13, 2014, and 6.2.8, the last version for OS X 10.8, a year later on August 13, 2015.

When Firefox 49.0 arrives, Snow Leopard users will have had 3 years more support by Firefox than Safari gave them.

Lion users, 25 months, and Mountain Lion holdouts, 13 months.

The truth is, there are unknown risks in the latest software.

Firefox Browser Upgrade Unless It

Just because some new piece of software requires a newer OS version is no reason to upgrade unless it gives you a feature you really need to have.

I have been happily working with OS X 10.6 on my 2007 Mac mini for years.

I dont find it limiting at all to use outdated software with an outdated operating system on a discontinued computer that will never run OS X 10.8 or newer.

Its good enough for what I need it to do.

After all, there was a time when they had nothing newer to use, and they were productive then.

Theoretical security problems are not real until they become exploits, and even then the problem might never reach your system if youre not downloading apps from unreliable sources.
