There’s the mac download link, looks the same as RC3 to me. Maybe they just deleted rc3 from the file name.
MD5 (/Volumes/data/mac_downloads/Firefox 3.0.dmg) = 27ff7989db6a206cdfc8989aca9f9283 MD5 (/Volumes/data/mac_downloads/Firefox 3.0 RC 3.dmg) = 27ff7989db6a206cdfc8989aca9f9283 sha1sum 7916e5455d6ce1963dbc5235fa72f2cb3a9644f2 /Volumes/data/mac_downloads/Firefox 3.0.dmg 7916e5455d6ce1963dbc5235fa72f2cb3a9644f2 /Volumes/data/mac_downloads/Firefox 3.0 RC 3.dmg
Nice, it looks like I already had it. If you have RC3, don’t bother with 3.0 final, same thing.
Looks like you’ll have to wait 40 minutes for the real download link. Spreadfirefox.com is having some problems though, looks like its getting overloaded.
Once its released, you can get it from http://mozilla.isohunt.com/.

Trying to load spreadfirefox.com and mozilla.com, neither are loading.
http://mozilla.isohunt.com/firefox/releases/3.0/mac/en-US/
Nothing to download in that folder.
You can see what the MD5SUMS are, by downloading the MD5SUMS file here. Looks like its still the same as RC3. Download is up on mozilla.isohunt.com.
Wait going to this page, says “We’re not quite ready yet!”. Argh, why am I downloading it again?
10:10 AM
Loading http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/outages.html right now.

mozilla.com will load very slowly, but might not look right, to slow to download the css file I guess, or the images or something. Doesn’t say anything about 3.0. Going to go take a dump, maybe when I’m done it’ll be ready.
10:27 AM
Neither spreadfirefox.com or mozilla.com are loading. Haven’t gotten an email from them saying its ready either. Wait mozilla.com loaded, still the same.

The outpouring of interest and enthusiasm around Firefox 3 has been overwhelming (literally!). Our servers are currently feeling the burn and should be back to normal shortly. Download day will officially commence once the site goes live. The 24 hours period will be clocked from that moment. Thanks for your continued support.
Quote from mozilla’s blog. I think safari is still better, firefox 3 doesn’t exist. They can’t even keep their site up.

hey everyone: servers coming back up soon, please be patient. http://tinyurl.com/5le4n9
From twitter.
Looks like its out finally.

The md5 is the same, guess RC3 is the final version for mac users.
12:01 PM
Finally got an email from them.
Today you’ll make history with Firefox
Are you ready to make history? Are you ready to set a World Record? Today is Download Day. To become part of the official Guinness World Record you must download Firefox 3 by 17:00 UTC on June 18, 2008, or roughly 24 hours from now.
