It's supposed to be available as early as tomorrow.

Stoked for this, looks better overall. My G4 running Firefox 3 constantly has problems due to the single-thread construct, and the memory cleanup is atrocious (if I run Firefox for a few days straight, it inevitably crashes). It will be nice to have those issues resolved.

Firefox 3 runs fine on my Intel based Mac. 18 days uptime right now, no crashing of any sort.

Having 4 gigs of RAM does help a bit.

For the nerds here:

Can you tell us more?

Personally, I'm impressed with FF 3, and this is from an FF hater.

I also like Opera, but they made some questionable decisions with 9.5, so it's no longer a favorite.

Even IE isn't terrible at this point, but I see no reason to run it, or to buy a Mac and start sucking bushels of smegma-drenched penises.

Safari... LOL no.

Anyone downloaded the beta of Google's "own" browser yet? (Rev's point is slightly crypto - Google funded Mozilla for the greatest part of its development)

Google just renewed their sponsership with Mozilla, right?
It's going to be interesting because, personally, I think anything google makes is awesome.

my browser was done in JAVA. so of course it was slow. but it was before those html editor panes were invented. neat stuff.

Not a huge demand for a browser only good for bookmarking Chiodo memes.

RevNet = Fail.

Geeks do stuff to see if they can. No offense, but the Rev is a geek. It's like trying to climb a mountain; you know it has been done, but you want to do it for yourself.

Very few of my programming projects were intended to make any money. Mostly, they're done because they're more fun than video games, pr0n or metalcore.
