I'm running Windows 2000 in VirtualBox -- I use "Movie Magic
Screenwriter," "Visual dBASE," "NetObjects Fusion" and a couple other
specialty programs. I also noticed that the two lines of Firefox
(3.0.x and 3.5.x) were treated as separate products. I had tried
Firefox 3.5 beta and ran the updater (it went to 3.5.1) -- then
realized that I still had the old Firefox, ran the updater and got
3.0.11 (from 3.0.8). I ended up uninstalling the older "line." Wonder
how long Firefox is going to support both "versions?"
As for Firefox 3.5 on CentOS -- it did seem to be faster, but if I
have to chose between speed and reliable, I'll go with reliable.
