TenFourFox



  1. Firefox
  2. Tenfourfox For Powerpc G4

Sad to read today that the upcoming FPR32 release of TenFourFox, a browser built to run on older PowerPC G4 and G5 Macs, will no longer be developed.

I run TenFourFox on both a Power Mac G4 Quicksilver 2002 and a Power Mac G5, and have enjoyed having this option of a current browser that still runs and is able to access most modern websites on these older machines. Given that TenFourFox is developed and maintained by a single developer for free, it’s really nothing but outstanding that we’ve been able to enjoy having the option of running a modern browser on these aging machines.

Tenfourfox turns your Apple into a Happy Bunny! So to pick your beta flavor of tenfourfox v6 to download, go here. For downloads from google code, which may be faster, choose this but you must know which processor you have or the wrong choice will not perform as expected. UPDATE: See this later post about Firefox 7 for PPC Apples. Mozilla’s excellent Firefox browser decided with version 4 to drop support for the PPC architecture, but thankfully, there’s TenFourFox, which takes Firefox 4 and gets it up and running under. TenFourFox, a new project from the creators of the Classila browser for classic Mac OS, is a fork of Mozilla’s Firefox 4.0 that runs on older Macs powered by Tiger and PowerPC CPUs. But if there’s one thing we’ve learned from our years of using Macs, it’s that they outlast anything else out there.
