I'll put it on my test box and give it a workout. I hope they fixed many of the bugs that plagued version 3.0.x.
I see that FF copied the IE method of opening a new tab. That's a good move because it frees up space on the toolbar.
*edit*
FF 3.5 is very slow on sites such as cnn.com and reuters.com. I rolled back to FF 3.0.11 and the sites are responding normally (<2 second load time).
So far (three hours) it looks good.
All the Add-Ons that I use updated themselves and are compatible.
One Add-Ons (Get Mail Plus) refused to load. I Uninstalled the version that I had, and downloaded the latest version from the author site and it works well too.

The funny thing is that I do not see any advandege with the 3.5 release. :confused:
I haven't used it yet. Just hearsay.
I did a clean install of FF 3.5 and it seems to run faster.
Something must have glitched when I did the direct update.
So far its has not crashed. That alone is worth it.
I will also say it runs faster.Quote:

That's weird. I obsess about clean installs myself, I guess now I actually have a reason to.Quote:

Mine renders OK.
How ever it does not matter what I set as a Home page when the browser starts, it always comes with a Blank Page at Stat.
I tried it on two unrelated computers (Win 7 RC), and it behaves the same.
It came pretty fast out of the RC, maybe they didn't thoroughly test that. I still haven't installed it, but I'll let you guys know how mine works once I do.
That is it I had it with the 3.5 Quirkiness.
I decide to go back to Version 3011.
For the fun it I tried to install version 30010 on top of 3.5.
Why 3010 ? Because that is the only offline full file that I have.
To my surprise it installed very smooth, then I used the online updated to to 3011.
In most cases when you try an older version of software on top of a newer one it would refuse to Install, or at t least will generate some kind of warning.
Nah, Not in this case. It like they prepare the software for such event.
The New Old installation works thus far OK.
