Are you happy with the latest version? Can you see any real valid reason for returning to an older version? Apparently quite a few peeps are a little disgruntled with FF 2.0, and as such, have made a list of nine reasons not to upgrade. Feel free to comment on the news article below...

I like it. It's the same with most new things that people are used to - they

Firefox 2 is much more polished than FF 1.x in my view

Tried it. It's not as slick as FF and it doesn't have the features and add-one that FF has.
 
Im not a fan tbh, i think the list those people have put together is clutching at straws a bit but i have had a few issues that they point out
 
well i haven bothered upgrading simply because i am very happy with 1.5 atm, and if it aint broke, dont fix it :)

Really Ham if everyone was as lazy as Dave we'd have a population of Homer Simpsons :p

And agreed - I LIKE FF2. Esp the very useful spell checker - no add-ons that don't quite work
 
The main thing that i have noticed is sometimes it wont start. I'll click the icon and it'll take about 1-2 minutes to start up.
 
I have no complaints with FF2 for OS X. Seems very solid and fast. Granted I barely use it as I prefer Safari to FF but when I do use it, nothing to complain about.
 
i am happy with 1.5 as well:luvff: and i have themes and extensions i dont want to loose by going to the latest version.

cheers.

i'm on IE7, not had any problems with it, never really used firefox for a long period of time. IE7 and firefox look the same to me, so there isnt much point in me downloading and installing extra uneeded software.
 
I never jump in straight away.

I will wait till it has been out at least a month and even then I wont switch over unless everything I read is raving about how much better than 1.5xxx it is.

Put me in with the "Aint broke so don't fix" brigade ;)
