I've been running it since Beta 2.
I have 10+ plugins going. Virtually _all_ of my plugins are updated
for FF3. I think it's an overwhelmed server giving people problems.
Firebug is updated -- somebody had said that it was not.
I like the new version quite a bit. The only issues I've had are a
plugin that was a bit screwey during beta, and a theme (Kempelton)
that, while updated for FF3, doesn't work right on the Mac version.
I like the address bar thing. I like the security features (the one-
click site id). I _don't_ like the default Windows theme, but that's
easily changed.
No significant problems. I'm quite happy with Firefox 3.

This makes perfect sense for 99.9999% of users. Only hackers and devs
might want two versions of the same browser installed at the same
time. I file this one under "of course it does".
