pagsz's Journal: Downloading Mozilla Again

Yes, it's that time again. Time to spend an hour downloading the newest release of my favorite browser, Mozilla. So, approximately an hour from now, I will have Mozilla 1.2 Alpha up and running on my computer.

I will be downloading Mozilla again on Monday, but not for this machine. My father recently bought a computer, which he and my brother will use. So, I will download Mozilla 1.1 for them. Over there, I will download only feature releases, as stability will be more important to them than it is to me.

It's ironic though . . . For the machine I update with every release, I have a dial-up connection. For the machine that will only be updated with feature releases, I get to use a broadband connection.

. . . And Again: Windows crashed about three-quarters way through the download. So, now it's back to the beginning. Oh, well, such is life with Windows . . .

Update: 12:47 PM -- Monday September 16 2002

Though I installed Mozilla 1.2 Alpha on Thursday, I still haven't actually used it. I didn't feel like surfing much by the time 1.2a was downloaded, and haven't gotten a chance since (at least on my home computer, to which I downloaded 1.2a). Won't get a chance today, either. After spending 9:00 - 4:15 on-campus, I'm headin' over to my father's place for dinner and the Monday Night Football game. Maybe I'll see how 1.2a handles tomorrow.
