Firefox 4 Released!

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the building-building-building dept.

A great number of readers have written in to tell us that Mozilla has officially announced the final, official, Firefox 4.0. Congrats to all the developers who have code in the build. If you want some neat eye candy, you can watch a sweet visualization showing where the downloaders are.

    The visualization at http://glow.mozilla.org/ is really nice, and I like the fact that there are over 120 downloads every second!
    By the way, my firefox updated automatically, does anybody know if it counted as a download?

    Actually, I'm running it right now (in order to access an internal site).
    VMware + Windows 7 + IE9 uses less memory than a native FF4 which has been running for a few hours. That's rather sad.
