Mozilla responds against Internet Explorer 8 and launches the Minifield or Firefox 4.0 Alpha, it is not Firefox 3.0 (or left the beta version) and now Mozilla launched the new version, what the innovation of Firefox now will have dictionary next to the package of installation, and I have no SS browser, but the theme and some functions is the same as version 3.0.
Firefox 4 2009, but only now launching the Alpha version of the browser used most of the world

I'll get the final version. My period trying programs is ended for me.

I cannot find any problems in it so far. It's perfect, and WAY better than the last version.

Maybe they stopped the beta for some reason...

Firefox 4.0 Alpha? I think I'll just stick with my Firefox 3.0 RC1, and soon Firefox 3.0 final, for now.

Honestly, with Firefox, I have experienced plenty of crashes; I the usage of tabs and RAM needs to be fixed. There's no reason why Firefox needs so much RAM, although The Ultimate Optimizer fixes this.

Even with the crashes, I still stick with Firefox because it seems to be faster, especially when you tweak it.

Firefox is better than IE, that's how I feel. Yes, it does take up a bit of RAM, but IE takes up some too. However, on Vista, Firefox is disastrous. Do a little over (expand video on YouTube) and Data Execution stops it.

Why start on another version of the project if you haven't already put out a final version of v3?

Alpha versions of products will also be a little more inefficient than their final products...

Most companies are more than 1 version ahead (well big companies)

Microsoft were working on blackcomb before they had even publically announced vista beta, and i think there is another os coming before blackcomb, vienna i think. (vienna and blackcomb are just codenames, like longhorn and whistler)

If there is, wouldn't it be another Windows Server edition?

tbh i don't know. vista was codenamed longhorn and longhorn became the name of the server. but I am not completely sure about servers.
