I had FF 2.0.0.9 installed on a Dell P4 1.8 Ghz with 1 GB memory. I uninstalled it and installed the FF 3 Beta 1. After launching the FF3 browser the first time, about 2 minutes passed and then the Firefox3.exe program started consuming memory. (According to my Task Manager) The performance on my PC went downhill to being unuseable. I did a couple of screen captures of the Task Manager showing FF3.exe using in excess of 900 MB of memory. Finally was able to close the browser, re-opened it a second time and got the same exact results. FF3 Beta 1 has now been uninstalled and FF 2.0.0.9 put back on. I think the beta needs work.
Sure... if you are willing to work for $10 and hour. Don't kid yourself, why do you think they're outsourcing so much work to India??
If you consider a recent report that Iraqis make approximately $70 U.S. a year, you have to believe that $1000 a month in India is a pretty good pay. Why should these corporations pay us $75K/yr to $100K/yr when they can get the same work done in India for $12K/yr??
