   Review - Mozilla Firefox for Windows (v2)

   1.0.1 (Feb 25, 2005)

   from what I recall, opera was built on the IE engine, naturally it would load faster than firefox (built on the mozilla engine) since windows auto-loads the IE engine every time it boots. I will stick to firefox :)

   actually.. the whole black helicopter consiracy dealie was based in part, in reality. The U.N. Uses black helicopters.... whether or not there is any markings on some of these or not is yet to be proven or disproven... whether or not the UN was wantonly and illegally abducting ppl? well... lets just say that if they were i have no evidence or proof thereof.... that isnt saying they weren't - just that to the best of my knowledge, they werent

   I dont have a life, but I wouldnt subscribe to ms's life - or any others' for that fact. Your life/lifestyle is the result of decades of life experiences.

6. Comment - China to begin reviewing all song lyrics for 'inappropriate' content

   while other comments below mock this policy, IMO, maybe this is something the US needs to implement.. I kinda like all the guidelines except #1, #5 and the last one, all the others make sense. Get rid of the song materil that most violent offenders and gangs listen to is just the first step in making this a peaceful and productive country. Yay China

7. Comment - Has 'beta' lost its meaning?

   1.0.1 (Sep 8, 2009 - 2:14 PM)

   I remember, "back in the day"when I usedf to also "professionally beta test" software. I beta tested REAL beta software, win98 before there was a win98, OS/2 warp server for eBusiness from IBM, and a rather huge list of software, games and operating systems for companies both big and small. Back then, it was a selective group that got to test the software before it became available for the consumers. I used to keep 20 pc's of various hardware configurations and a small staff just for this purpose. We ran the software through our in house, closed loop trials, each team member getting a few days on each configuration, running the software and/or OS through a gauntlet of "in house" designed tests based on 100+ years combined real world experience of the team in the real world of consumer computing.
   My team were all ex- pc techs (or at least still working as pc-techs), with many years experience fixing problems consumers got themselves into.
   
   Life was good. After the testing cycles were completed we got free software and/or Operating Systems.
   
   Beta's back then were really Betas, not existing consumer software upgrades. There were a LOTTA issues and I and my team took pride in LOOKING for issues and working with the developers to resolve the issues.
   
   Now today, both alpha and real beta cycles are done completely in house and the betas we OCCASIONALLY see available for public testing are really just pre-release software... a final quick check to see if the software will preform as expected in the real world, as well as to get [1] consumer feedback on the desire for said software and [2] to assist in making a pricing structure based on [1].
   
   I am ashamed these days to be known as a beta tester as today, being a beta tester means you paid money to get GA software before anyone else.
