yes compared to IE development it is but compared to development in Opera it's doesn't seem like much of an improvement for Firefox 2. If anything it reminds me of Vista and how it had all these new and big things announced and then slowly stripped away all the great features and left the so-so features that are while good not good enough for such a large release.
How so? Of the entire bunch of new features, a single one was stripped - Places. I don't see how this justifies comparison to Vista.Oh, and BTW. Opera development may seem more impressive, since they always add tons of features but I really prefer the Firefox's way of keeping things slick and simple instead of adding everything but a kitchen sink to the browser.
Well I was loving firefox(stumble exstension is awesome) before I discovered Opera 9 with there cool add search function and loading speed. Looks like that took care of one them I think cause it seems alot smoother, but the add search function does not work very well(doesn't notice any search engines for me).

Nope, the release didn't break the Find. Disable your extensions - I believe I had that problem, yet I couldn't figure out which extension caused it

Yeah I really feel for you man. You gotta move your mouse all the way to the top of the screen and make two mouse clicks.
