It says the new preferences window is a bit buggy -- I've found one of the nicest things about FF is the fact that it doesn't tend to crash on me, and that it works pretty intuitively -- although I don't know how many people have noticed just how much memory in general Moz based browsers hog, especially if you go tab crazy like I do.

But Paulie -

I heard somewhere sometime somehow that you were the patron saint of buggy software?

I suppose you could have been doing embedded control systems for the Amish...

yes! Those embedded control bugs cause serious injury, since Amish computers run on babbage-style spindles. Get the spin-locks wrong on one of those puppies and the flying cogs can be deadly.

No, what you probably mean is that he's the holder of a patent on buggy software.

Not a bad place to be in really: every time a new piece of buggy software appears, clink! goes the cash register...

I'm just thinking of all those buggies running wild and out of control on the way to barn-raisings.

dinotrac: Around my area the politically correct term is "Auxillary Storage Area Constructions" -- not barn raisings (That is Sooo 1890, man, get with the times).

PaulFerris: In my area, the politically correct term for a farmer today is: landscape-park-guardsman (free - translated). Well, I rather stick with the Sooo 1890 farmer!

This thread needs a big blast of Raid for all the buggies.

tuxchick: what Raid level? 0, 1 or 5?

I vote for a complex Raid level, like 1i - 5j -- that always confuses the operations people the most.
