Ive been using it since the tail end of November or thereabouts. It crashes with an autorecovery regularly which means it doesnt actually have to close. So if they just got rid of the warning popups you would never know. Otehrwise it seems to have caught up to Firefox and Chrome in some respects.

Pretty sure this isn't the "beta" version.

So far, I've noticed that it seems to be very much faster than ie8.

Been for maybe 1/2 hour  no crash yet.

If they had problems with it crashing, you'd think that they would be aware of it and would have solved that problem in beta.

Im not using the beta either since WU pushed through the release version but it still crashes. So does Firefox. I use Chrome infrequently so I cant pass judgment on how it acts.

FF4 hasn't crashed yet, nor did the last version I had (3.6.XX).

FF4 is "clean" and I like the new layout.

It's not bad, but I had to turn the menu bar back on. I like having my Address Bar and File/Edit/Etc. menus handy without clicking on another option first too much.
