Firefox 2.0 Beta 1 (Nightly) New Visual Refresh

[gxsaurav]

seems like it's firefox which is playing the catchup now, all the new features which firefox baught over IE 6 have been implemented in IE7, but with a better management.

I liked 1.0, didn't lie 1.5 due to memory leaks & crashes....2.0 looks promising,

it's just extensions don't work & there is no assurence that they will be updated for 2.0, i mean, a simple thing like "Reload image" should be a browser feature, but it's available only through an unsigned extension

i just hope they make a Windows Native version of firefox too, just to make the Firefox Software fast

That should be a thing they shouldn't even think of. It will be a crime on their part. Creating a native version for windows will mean forking the project. If they fork out their projects it will make it a lot worse to manage and cause many other problems. That's a definite no no and a very short minded vision.

Well about the extensions, this is still beta so it doesn't make much sense to write extensions for a code that is rapidly changing, though a few people do make extensions. So, wait for the final release. Betas are never meant to be used except for testing.

almost all my favourite extensions for 1.5 does seems to work for me in V2.0
..ofcourse i installed all of them thru nightly build tester tool extension.
only extension that caused problem is TabMix plus but i brought the functionality of that extension via TabFx and Session Saver(the combination rocks)...

but maybe thats because i'm using 2048 kbps connection and 200mhz machine!!!LOL
