FireFox 3 Beta: Oh The Memory Usage


I love FireFox!!!

It is by far the best browser available, at least in my humble opinion. With the extensions that are available for you to install, you can tweak it to do everything that you need.

Of course the guys at Mozilla didn't want to stop there, as they've released FireFox 3 beta, and they've added some pretty cool features and tweaks. But as you know with a beta comes the bugs, and some memory usage has come front and center. Will they have this worked out by release date? I sure hope so. But if you want to check it out, and don't mind a little performance issues, go give it a test run and let us know how it went.

I strongly suggest using Microsofts free 2007 Virtual PC. After you install it, you can load any version of Windows, OS2, DOS, even Linux! What's so great about it is you have what is known in the industry as a "Sandbox Environment". What that means is you have a self contained operating system inside your regular O.S. You can test out beta stuff, or do performance tweaks; actually you can do anything you want, browe the net, install stuff you have zero faith in without fear of screwing up the Computer you rely on. VMWare is another virtualization prouduct you can use (Though it's not free).
Really, it's the only way to safely do these things; and it's easy as pie... I swear it!!!
