FireFox 3

Post by Moving_Target »

Firefox 3 now has an official release date June 17th 2008. They are trying to set a new record of most downloaded software in one 24 hour time span. I'll try to remember to download it that day. Are you?

I hate world records. I don't know why, but I just do. So, I'll be getting it later. :P
Plus I'll be camping on the 17th so, meh!

[EDIT]
Don't get me wrong though, I love Firefox. It's the only browser I use. Right now I'm using version 3 beta 5.

Wait...WTF? When I go to the download page, all I see is version 2.0.0.14. Where's 3.0?

Edit: Wait....I guess you have to go to the Download page in IE to get Firefox 3.0. Weird....

I's got it today too, was too busy yesterday. ACK everything gets a red line under it because it isn't Dutch when I type. How very annoying *goes screwing around with the settings*

Woo!
You do know that there was no record before this. If only a hundred people downloaded, it still would have been recorded as the new record.
