Firefox 3 is Gold

[Donor]

why do i have firefox 3 then?

Beta version which has been out for a while now?

You're a Mozilla developer?

Using a haxx0red copy?

Accomplished time traveller?

must be a beta, but firefox cant find updates? pretty sure it hasnt installed it....

[vifferman]

Yeah, it doesn't work if you go "Check for updates" - just click on the Mentalness of Trousers linky thingy.

So.
I installed it, but didn't feel anything. Where's the buzz?

Oh - and it still fucks up the look of my documentation, but at least the javascript behaves now.

Opera's up to version 9.5 therefore has to be better than IE & Firefox.

[Gubb]

Installed it just now. Awesome.

I've just installed 'FoxyMusic' which connects with iTunes and puts a menu bar on the bottom browser for listening to tunes while surfing, and put the Zune Theme on to match the desktop.

Awesome program.

Tell that to Netscap......oh i mean Mozilla Project Team

[Slingshot]

yeah been running the beta and then the rc for a wee while now,

jolly good program

Me too, probably been running it for at least a month or so. I like the URL bar feature.

Opera has been better than FF for years - admittedly they have been closing the gap in the last year or two though.

However, FF is still pantloads better than IE.

I have been using 3.05B since the beta came out...is there any need to upgrade?

What really gets my goat is that MS has written the new version of OWA so that for full functionality you have to use IE.

All other browsers automatically go to OWA light.

Considering the staggering amount of AJAX in OWA, MS probably did the right thing. Everyone's implementation of the DOM is very slightly different. As a systems admin, which would you prefer: people getting redirected to Diet OWA is they're using FF / Opera / Safari, etc. or getting 100 support calls a week claiming that OWA's broken?

[NighthawkNZ:Me]

They've launched Firefox 3.0

I been using it for the last 2 or 3 weeks... I may go back to 2.x

[TerminalAddict]

mmm wonder how many people here are running ubuntu and THINK they already have firefox 3.0 final ???

dpkg -l firefox
will show 3.0-rc1 ... not 3.0

Wow. Is Clint Eastwood still playing the lead role?

Haha nice one

[Hitcher]

Nice. Although I have a couple of add ons to track down now.
