The new Firefox is here. Guess what...spelling works ...and it's actually nice.(you can add different dictionaries if You don't speak English witch is practicle... ) I've installed it for just a few minutes and I can tell you it's faster than the 1.5 version...(I can tell dew to my somewhat slow system ). You do not have to go all the way to the right to close a tab...now every tab has a "X" stuck to it. It looks slightly different the 1.5(different icons for home, reload, etc.)
The bottom line for me is that is a really fast browser. I just visited some web pages with lots of flash banners and lots of dynamic content and before, with 1.5 version they ware moving slowly, while with the 2.0 version it's not the case.
The memory usage is 65MB (in my case) for one web page opened and appears to grow with an extra 15-20MB if you open an other somewhat complex web page in another TAB. Opening a new window will have the exact same effect. By complex web page I mean www.tomshardware.com.
(this dose not happen if you open www.google.com ...)
In the end..what are YOUR opinions of the NEW FIREFOX 2.0 ?
