I'm beeing forced to download the Firefox 4 with the "far from being cute" notice that my current FF will be banned from the web soon. The thing is that my Mac OS 10.5.8 isn't an Intel, it's a PowerPC.

What now? You guys should think (as Chrome should too) about people who CANNOT buy the brand new stuff Apple launches every 10 minutes. Unfortunatelly I can't buy a new Mac just to have FF 4 installed.

Stick with Firefox 3.6.x, it will be supported until next March.

The other alternative is to build Firefox 6.0 your self or to use a third-party build from http://tenfourfox.blogspot.com/2011/08/601-now-available.html since you have a PowerMac (PPC).
