Everyone already knows about the server downtime when they were trying to break the record blah blah.
The botch I’m talking about is my experience of downloading it this morning and trying it out.
My experience was about 15 minutes…
- 1 minute to download Firefox 3
- 1 minute to install Firefox 3
- 1 minute to find out half of my add-ons don’t work
- 1 minute to try and hack the MaxVersion to work and fail miserably
- 2 minutes to locate a Firefox 2 installer
- 3 minutes to download it from the stupidly slow FTP
- 1 minute to uninstall Firefox 3 and install Firefox 2
- 2 minutes to find out Firefox 2 kept crashing because the Firebug I upgraded to crashes it
- 1 minute to uninstall Firefox 2 and re-install it
- 2 minutes to set it up back to the way I like and restore my previous profile
I think I’ll leave Firefox 3 for a little while to get rid of teething issues.
