So last week, we got our first taste of contributing to Mozilla, by doing some beginner performance tests on The Chrome Experiments. For the most part it seems as Firefox and Chrome are performing pretty comparably, with the exception of a few isolated experiment bugs (which you can read from my results in the Mozilla link above).
I think one of the more impressive experiments I got the chance to play around with was the Amiga Workbench Emulator, which is essentially a full javascript re-work of the Amiga operating system, you can open programs, change fonts, windows etc... All within your browser. Pretty neat!
What sucked about it is that it seemed to internally "crash" while loading the "operating system" on Firefox and I was not able to see how well it ran. It did however load up on Chrome, so if you want to check this particular experiment out, chrome is your only choice at the moment.
I called it Black Screen of Death
