Seconded, Firefox 3 is top-notch. Faster loading, much lower memory usage, and ridiculously fast rendering. Congrats to all involved.
Will see about lower memory usage.

48,340 K right now on FF3
28,764 on IE 6
from just viewing this page.

The thing that kept me from putting FF2 as my default browser was after an half hour of usage, the memory usage shot up quadrupole the amount causing the browser to be slow and unusable until you exit out of it and open it back up. That got very annoying real fast and kept me using IE6 since I did not have that problem with it.

Here's to hoping that is fixed in FF3 so I can make the complete switch!

either way that is barely any memory usage. My PCs have 2GB to 4GB of memory. I'm not worried about a program using 50MB or 100MB. It won't make any difference to me.
