is there any reason to use that? I mean pretty much all users would have to upgrade their browsers

  How is that a bad thing? I'm watching the demo video in Firefox Minefield right now and it works like a charme. Video without flash means for me (on linux) no random crashes or lockups. And if someone is too lazy to upgrade their browser then well, there are a bazillon flash video sites out there for them, no?

    just a pain in the ass since you need to reboot your computer to do so. I went 2 months w/o a reboot, but ended up doing it when I had to upgrade firefox to see the site

      Why do you need your computer on so much? And what os are you running that a reboot was required for firefox?
      • vaksel 17y ago
        it takes like 2 minutes to turn the computer on, and then you have to launch all the apps. I'm just used to keeping it always on, so that I can get started right away. OS is vista, but the reboot was required by firefox, not the OS.

          Firefox only required the reboot due to an OS limitation by the sounds of it though, I didn't have to reboot my linux box or my macbook.

      That's a problem with your OS and not with firefox then. My fox sometimes updates itself multiple times a day, without any rebooting.
