Ahh, wondered about that. I saw a news article last night talking about 0.9 and when I went to the mozilla site I saw the same thing you did. Laughing

Mozilla Schleyfox. Awesome! Very Happy

I'm running 0.9 on my Windoze work PC ATM. No complaints so far! Smile

It seems to be exactly like 0.8 atm, except the theme is different.

I don't know how mouse gestures and stuff works, and it's supposedly built-in now.

Using it now. I kinda miss the old "font rendering", now its very mozilla-esk.

{edit}

But not bad.

All I want from Firefox is a faster-starting version of the Mozilla browser component. When it gets there - I'll switch fully.

How fast does it have to be? moz starts on my box in ~5 seconds which ain't bad. If I've already ran it during that particular session and bring it back up, it's instantaneous.
