No, not my age. Firefox—go get it! Congrats to Chris, Mike B., Mike C., Mike S. (I think this project needs some name diversity), Mitchell, Paul, Asa, John, Brendan and everyone else. I’ll write more when I’ve had a chance to use Internet Explorer 7 for a bit longer. I’ve been using Firefox 2 for awhile, so it only seems fair to give IE a chance before discussing both. The team did, after all, send cake.

I’ve been using FF 2.0 release clients for about a week and its great. I love the fact that i can get a new add-on or theme and FF will restart and bring back my tabs :)

What a great makeover the Mozilla site has received. Much clearer, much more ‘hip’. Really emphasises that this is a version 2 product.
I’m still a little disappointed that with each release, Firefox for Mac seems to get bigger and bigger. We’re now on 18MB, can this growth in size be sustainable?

Glad to hear it, but how come when I check for up-date via “Help” >> “Check for up updates” I get “No updates found” There are no new updates available. Firefox may check periodically for update”
Did I miss something ;-)
PS : I’m still using FF 1.5.0.7 waiting for automatic updates :-)
Thanks for all the great work

2 has been useable for me for day-to-day use since Beta 1. The only time I encountered any kind of annoying (but not world-ending) bug was in RC1; Clear Private Data would crash the program about half the time I used it.
This is a testament to Mozilla about their product quality.

Paul Thurrott thinks 2.0 is a dud. His reasoning is that the phishing filter is weak.
I have my phishing filter on 2.0 turned off. IMHO, phishing filters are for morons.

You are my idol!!
FF2 is great!
Greetings from Mexico.

@Mr Lizard,
The increase in size is to make a single Firefox download work for all processors that OS X runs on. This is called a Universal Binary. That means that the Universal Binary Firefox includes all the code that is the same for PPC and Mactel, as well as all the code which is only used for one of the processors. That means that approximately half code in the Universal Binary will never be used by whichever machine you are running it on. I’m not sure why Apple chooses this method for application distribution, but there’s not much you can do to cut down on size besides distribute a version for each processor. Look at the last PPC-only release for pretty much any OS X software product and the first Universal Binary release and you should see a jump in size to approximately double.

Hy!
I’ve just posted promotional article at my site http://sevefanclub.blog.hr/ about new FireFox.
I brought some downloaders already but still i didn’t get any points?
Why is that?
please help me! (over comments or mail)

I noticed that the Tools -> Options -> Content, (or Edit -> Options -> Content on Linux versions), then Fonts&Colors box, then “Advanced” button, the “Display Resolution” drop down menu in the lower left is gone in 2.0. One can use layout.css.dpi in about:config to have the same functionality (read Fx’s Knowledge Base entry about it), but there needs to be some URL where the “line” that you used for custom calibration can be measured to put in layout.css.dpi. I only know the value I put in b/c I remembered that the “line” was 4.75 inches long on my screen, which corresponded to 63 dpi.

@ Jeremy Baron
Good point, didn’t think about that!

Would you please past a link to said Knowledge Base article by Fx.

I think it would be great if Opera is also reviewed, when you compare Firefox and IE. It is a really wonderful browser and I personally think it gets much less credit than it deserves.
Cheers and keep up the great blog!

I agree. Opera deserves a lot more attention.

Have been having problems with tabs in 2.0, which are so annoying that I havent even had the hearts to try the “great new features” before switching back to 1.5. At first I thought it’s probably something to do with my own pc configurations, but a check with the rest of the firefox community proved me wrong. At this point of time, although it is always good to have your competitor in check, I think everyone who’ve used ffx before already know that firefox is better than what IE could ever be, so the point is not to outdo IE but to outdo the previous versions of firefox, to make web browsing a more user-friendly than before. IMHO, firefox 2.0 has failed in that aspect, leaving us instead with bugs and useless features(who needs a close button on every tab when you’ve got the middle click) which goes against the principles of developing firefox in the first place (a lean and simple browser). Just my point of view.
