Damn.. finally get Latest & Greatest and____5 days later
it's obsolete. Even before I grok Tabbed Browsing\ufffd to fullness. Why did I *know* this was a sugar-coated slippery slope :(
And if I install .9.9 in another directory as suggested: will it look to (still existing) NS 4.5 to load up its little .ini files, as at first (?) OR - save the work put into .9.8 and seamlessly pick That one (??)
Found the workaround for .9.8's forgetting how to Minimize itself; can live with schizophrenic cursor antics in a text box. Do I really want to trade .9.8 for .9.9 or wait for 1.0.0.0.b ??
Never mind,

Install story
I've installed .96, .97, .98 to different directories and it seems to pick up my bookmarks and everything from previous installations.

Thanks.. got it. So far it does seem faster.
Oddly though as to organizing - it didn't give me an option for a new dir, but found a place for the .exe up one dir from where 9.8 resides (!?) And both still work.
Maybe we aren't supposed to know everything; s'OK just so long as uninstall knows where to go. Kinda scary having the Latest stuff, though...

That's curious
All the ones I've installed have given me the option of doing it to a new directory, though it usually defaults to the previous installation. If I remember, I'll start downloading it tonight before I go to bed and see if my .99 experience duplicates yours.

Closer to 1.0, yes!
Soon they will have the 1.0 release! Oh happy day when that comes out! I'm betting it will break IE speed records! :)
I am free now, to choose my own destiny.

Not according to the [link|http://www.mozilla.org/roadmap.html|roadmap]. Looks like 1.0 is slated for sometime in April :)

They're not ready.
There are still enough bugs that 1.0 should be further off than April.
