    When we're all playing Halo 2 on November 9th! Pick another release date!

      They did it to reduce the server load. :)

      Who actually goes to a release party for a browser? Sounds like the same group of people that have fantasy battles with foam swords at my school . . .

    ... with Firefox 1.0 RC1 It counts for something, doesn't it?

    ...if I remember a previous story on slashdot...

    And don't underestimate the power of a hard baguette.

    I never gotta the bottom of whether it's ./ or FF fault. Anyone know?

    How dare you. It's never Mozilla's, FF's or slashdot's fault. Stick to the usual suspects, please:
    • Microsoft
    • George Lucas
    • patent attorneys
    • SCO
    So if you run Windows, it must be Microsoft's fault, if you run Linux, it's SCO's fault (the code I borrowed from them is incredibly buggy).
    If you use BSD, it's because BSD is dying.
    If you use Max OS X, either George Lucas' ruined it or some patent attorney is to blame (I'm not sure on the last one).

    ...dictionnary search.

    That was funny.

    Firefox still sometimes effs up Slashdot's rendering. Or is it the other way around?
