Last WOOT of the day.
1 hour, 51 minutes until launch.

Standing by...

Added after 3 hours 7 minutes:

So...1 hour and 12 minutes after launch...and the Mozilla.com servers are practically dead.

Shit.



Well, I was prepared, though, so anyone interested can grab the goods from the official mirrors...listing some here, for your convenience.

HAHA OH WOW
Seems like all the other mirrors still have their warning message up. Umeå Universitet for the win!

Actually, seems that ftp link doesn't count for the dowload record.

The official download link has been failing a lot, but I finally managed to get the download.

DOWNLOADING AT THE SPEED OF DIAL-UP.

Although I installed it off the one I got from the FTP, I DID dl it from the main page once just to check if I had the correct file (i did). So I'm on the count too ^^

That's NT 3.51, it brings back so many memories.
I never actually used it but it looks a awful lot like 3.11... I wish I owned a Macintosh with the old System 1 when I was a kid instead but that's as close as it gets.
