It is blinding fast!!!!!

Being in Beta, the downside is most Add-Ons do NOT work, so I miss "Open in IE Tab," so I can view fully such sites M$'s

I accept this for the speed

If you download this Beta, your old Firefox remains

If you download this Beta, install TraceMonkey (http://lifehacker.com/5063202/) (which is easy) to get the amazing speed

This Beta as with its previous version loads slowly

I look forward to Firefox adding Google's Chrome concept in its browser, so if one tab crashes, your browser crashes

What I have not tested yet is leaving this version of FF up over nite to see the next morning if it "leaks" memory so much I virtually have to do a Window's Restart to clear out all the memory FF has used just setting there over night
