Anyone else notice the speed improvements in Firefox 3? I dig it. I haven't even tweaked it yet and it's much, much faster than 2.

Yeah, it's great. Much more stable than FF2. And when run on a Mac, it's even faster, although I'm comparing a 2.4Ghz Core 2 Duo processor to a 1.4Ghz AMD Athlon processor, so that could account for part of the difference.

No.

Why did I think I was going to be reading about a sequel that included Clint Eastwood and a few Russian MiGs?

Apparently, I should shut up because my settings were saved from FF2. While I expect that in a point release, I didn't expect that in this case.

The sequel is Clint vs. North Korean MiGs. Stay topical, Deb, geez. biggrin.gif
