I'm no expert in running a web browser firm, but looking at a typical firefox user, I'm pretty sure Mozilla made the right choice (whatever their reason behind that choice is).

No one I know has had such a negative experience of Firefox3 that they'd want to keep on using Firefox2. I believe this move will facilitate in the evolution to browser based (client side) technologies. Seriously, as a person who's worked on web applications, I'm completely in killing off obsolete browsers. Heck, I can't wait for IE7 to die off ... :) How do you define ‘satisfactory’?
