Having reverted to 1.5.0.7 after the 2.0 release, which was a disaster, this upgrade seems to be working fine. All my extensions are working with 1.5.0.8, and it's stable.

Have you checked on your extensions lately?

I am running 2.0 and all my extensions are working fine. Some were available the day that 2.0 came out but were updated pretty fast.

You might check again, they are probably working now.

I couldn't agree more. v2.0 has been a real pain with endless freezes and relaunching needed. I'm running OSX 10.4.8 on a Macbook 1.83, 1.25 GB ram.

I've been using 2.0 since the first candidate release - with virtually no problems at all. My extensions all work fine, thanks to prompt updates from the authors of the Nightly Build Tools extension.

I have had 1.5 fall over on me many times, and 2.0 has (so far) only fallen over twice here at work and only once at home. In all three instances 2.0 was able to restore the sessions exactly where I was when the incidents occurred. Another big thumbs up for 2.0 over 1.5.

YMMV

Version 2.0 has worked without failure on my computer. It is now my browser of choice and I use most of them.

G4 Gigabyte Ethernet, 10.4.8, 2GB RAM, Dual 1.5GHz CPU (Giga Upgrade)

Zero problems.
