So, how about Snow Leopard?

Any updates?

Comment 7

[Brian Carpenter [:geeknik]]

In my opinion, I think that http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/system-requirements.html should be updated to reflect that Firefox 3.x will run on x86 and x64 versions of Windows 7, but that support for Windows 7 features like jumplists won't be available until Firefox 3.7 is released.

Given that your comment is from August, and before Win7 was released, we officially support Win7 now right?

Comment 11

[Pascal Chevrel:pascalc]

I guess that we should add it since in the features page we give our performance results on a Windows 7 box, no ?

Added Windows 7 to system requirements page on 3.6 branch. We already say "10.4 or later" for OS X, so that includes 10.6. Calling this fixed.
