Firefox 2.0 Posted a Day Early

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the let's-slashdot-mozilla dept.

A number of readers alerted us to the [link removed] day-early [accidental] posting of Firefox version 2.0. At this writing the top page at mozilla.com still doesn't mention its availability. One reader pointed us to [link removed] a mirror and another recommended a comprehensive review of Firefox 2.0, with many screenshots, over at mozillalinks.org. Update by RM: - links above removed at request of Mozilla release people. They asked us to link to this note instead. They're only asking us to wait until Tuesday Afternoon (U.S. Pacific Time) for the official 2.0 download, which isn't long. (Patience is a virtue, etc.)

    Well, I'm going to hijack this thread for a better cause: If you, like me, think the Firefox 2 default theme is good in general, but too pale, look no further. Well, actually, look just below this paragraph: http://davidnaylor.org/blog/2006/10/new-firefox-th eme-saturated.html

    what about mega-man? does that make him a million years old? or does he have a million times the strength? or is he just a million times more lame?

  7. Why link to a Windows executible? by acoustix · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    I thought this was a Linux site (or at least a Windows-bashing site)? If Linux is superior to Windows in every way then why don't they link to the Linux install?

    Huh. When I was in Amsterdam, google automagically searched google.nl from my American laptop.

    That can be a pain. Use http://www.google.com/webhp to stop it redirecting to your "local" version.
