Firefox turns 1 !!!!

Mozilla - Home of the Firefox web browser, Thunderbird and the Mozilla Suite
http://www.mozilla.org/

On tuesday Mozilla will release the public preview version of Firefox 1.0
I have been running nothing but firefox for quite awhile now, and basically i can't use IE anymore, whenever i do, i keep trying to use mouse gestures and such. if you haven't already i would strongly suggest checking out this great browser.

I have to admit I was a little skeptical at first, but now I've been using it for a few months when I got a bug in IE, and I can't go back either... even though XP has been reinstalled and IE is fixed :lol:

It's a great browser.

Hands down the best at the moment, but i do have a soft spot for lynx.

bad news. all in one gestures will not run on version 1.0 firefox. in fact, a lot of extensions don't work. should i wait, or uninstall and download version .9?
