Think he was being sarcastic - (as in they'll have 12 betas total).
When you think of beta software, usually only about 2 or 3 betas or so, not 12. lol

Hello, I've been running x64 Firefox Minefield for ages now. I'm on their nightly builds programme.
Most of the time it runs very well indeed and seems faster than it's regular cousin.
However an update occasionally comes along that will render it unusable for a day or so. Luckily I run and sync Opera and Chrome as well so this is not a problem.
In December I received an evaluation survey which included a question box,
So I asked. Here are the results plus a screenshot of Minefield. I would recommend it if you're prepared to run more than one browser

They may find it harder than they expect to move from once a year updates to numerous updates :/

Expect 64-bit (x64) Firefox 5.0 for Windows in 2011

Expect 64-bit (x64) Firefox 5.0 for Windows in 2011 - SoftpediaMozilla will finish with Firefox 5.0 what it has started with Firefox 4.0 in terms of support, namely producing a next generation release of its open source browser tailored to 64-bit Windows.
Some Softpedia readers might remember that I told you first in May 2010 that Mozilla had started cooking an x64 flavor of Firefox for Windows.
The open source browser vendor even managed to put together and release a few early Builds of 64-bit Firefox 4.0 to early adopters running Microsoft's OS.
But in the end, it appears that x64 Firefox 4.0 wasn’t meant to be. To date, Microsoft is the only company providing a 64-bit version of its browser, and those running x64 Windows can find it easily by digging just a little bit under All Programs.
