Courtesy of Mashable and StumbleUpon (having a vested interest), I have come across “Firefox Campus Edition,” which appears to have just been launched by the Mozilla team. As in just last week!
Go grab a download here.
The difference? It would appear to have StumbleUpon pre-installed to help while away those college hours. Second, it has FoxyTunes to control your iTunes habit and finally, the educational tool in the set, Zotero - a note-taking-come-research plugin (one I have used and like).

I’ve noticed lately that my FF resources jump to about 135k in memory when opening up 3 or 5 tabs…..is this normal?

@ Chniookman: I’m sorry I don’t know but your better bet would be to head over to the mozilla support forums.

@ both of you, why are you still using that garbage called Firefox? Seriously. It was trash from day one when it was called Phoenix.
http://www.mozilla.org/projects/seamonkey/
2.0 is in alpha, which means it will be out very soon. It has all the good additions Firefox introduced - the new extension/theme/plugin manager being chief among them - without any of the bad decisions it’s “designers” made.
For those who have no idea SeaMonkey is the continuation of the Mozilla Suite, which Firefox was a subset of. Mozilla decided to kill the Suite in favor of Firefox (dumb move #235,476). Later a group of developers got sick of the way Firefox was being mismanaged so they took over the old Suite updating it and calling it SeaMonkey. 1.0 was a breath of fresh air, and 2.0 is even better.
If you need another reason, FF+TB takes about twice the memory compared to SeaMonkey, and if you throw Nvu in to the mix it’s even worse.
And unlike Firefox I’ve yet to see a see-through preferences window! Probably because Ben Goodger isn’t on the SeaMonkey team!

You like it so much you hide behind an anonymous moniker - hmm? Anyway, where did I say I was using Firefox?
