Is it stable? I am not on my computer right now, would it be safe to upgrade this one? Any bugs?

I'm pretty lazy when it comes to upgrading most software things, it seems whenever I do the next version comes out so I'm still out of date. I've been using Firefox since some of the betas, the upgrade is pretty easy.

Well, it's still Beta...and you know how that works...the developers will always recommend that you wait if you are worried about instability, bugs, data loss, etc...but at the same time, we've been running beta software here at AF for a month now, so you never really know.

If you're not in dire need of the new features, it wouldn't hurt to wait. I might give it a shot though

I think I'm gonna try it out now too, sounds awesome. I like the new ability to open accidentally closed tabs, I do that all the time.
