Thanks, K B. I’ll have to frame it and show it off at next month’s meeting of the Society of Infidels.

The site has finally gone live with the final release, in the U.S. anyway…

… the “Countdown Until Dumbya’s Gone” counter that gives the number of days until he’s outta there, does NOT work.

That is reason enough to stay with FF 2.0

The one add-on I have come to depend on to the point I couldn’t do without – Accu Weather. Especially with all the violent storms and tornadoes in the recent couple of weeks.

Too bad Google Firefox Sync is not available for FF3. No upgrade here!

I take that back. I just edited the default shortcus on Opera 9.5 and I can paste & go again with ctrl+b

#9 safari a good browser? are you insane??…my bad, I forgot you’re a macfan. Sorry for the redundancy folks.

#10 that’s the problem of relying on plug-ins. A new version comes out and the likelyhood that your beloved plug-ins don’t work is quite high.

I do have one complaint about opera 9.5 which is that they decided to change the paste & go shortcut from crtl+b to ctrl+shift+v. Very annoying and counterproductive

#11 IE 7 quick tabs? you obviously haven’t used opera.

If they list us all out in the Christmas edition of the Guinness Book of Records then count me in… if not, nah.

That said, it would just encourage mother-dearest to purchase *another* copy. Perhaps I will wait until the day after too.

Ian.

I plan to wait on my FF3 download until after the release date. Why conflict with millions of downloads?

Some do, some don’t. A tragedy for me is that the “Countdown Until Dumbya’s Gone” counter that gives the number of days until he’s outta there, does NOT work.

Among my likes of IE7, are favorites management, quick tabs, Hide the standard menu with the Alt key.

My big question about FF3 is will the add-ons work with it? I seriously rely on various add-ons.

Opera is, without a doubt, the fastest browser. The problem is, it doesn’t have all the cool bells and whistles that FF has.

I don’t like IE7enough to use it in preference to Firefox but at work it does ‘feel’ good. Response feels engineered not put together. I only wish all MS products felt as good.
I have found that my work native SAP user interface which works with IE6 doesn’t work with IE7 but whether it’s work or IE I wouldn’t like to say. The SAP web interface works with IE6 & 7 and Firefox
