    I just flicked through the release notes and they have Firefox ported. This will suffice for 95% of my needs on a basic PC.

    It looks great. In a world of flat UIs (sorry, UXs) where you dunno what’s a button or a text entry field, Haiku has kept to a textured/3D UI. It looks great to use, maybe I’ll try it on an old NUC I have lying around.
