3It’s pretty addicting to fiddle around with about:config, but I’ve had problems upgrading Firefox in the past when the settings there were heavily customized. Nothing serious, just some glitches that involved tweaking about:config back to some defaults.
And I’m surprised they didn’t mention about:mozilla even if it doesn’t do anything useful ;) I can’t find it right now, but there’s an archive of those easter egg pages dating back a couple of versions.
