Re: Firefox v1.5 Beta now out!

Just a caution: It's just a beta.

Because it uses a radically different method for implementing extensions (things like java support, realplayer, etc), many extensions do not yet work with it. So sites that use a lot of multimedia probably won't work. And if you use any really specialized extensions, you might as well forget it.

So while its an overall improvement, it's going to take some time for the rest of the world to catch up. On top of that, it is a beta and bugs are expected. So I wouldn't download this and try to use it as your daily web browser. It's not quite ready for prime time, especially when 1.0.6 works so well.

But it is super nifty.
