Mozilla & Gecko clones Ars reviews Firefox 2 RC2, and concludes: "I personally never managed to get any of the third party spellcheck extensions to work right, and the availability of spellcheck support alone was enough to convince me to use 2.0 pre-releases rather than the 1.5.0.7 build that comes with Ubuntu. All things considered, RC2 adequately meets most of my needs, but doesn't exceed my expectations as major releases have in the past. Hopefully, development on the Places system and other delayed features will make future releases more interesting."

Well, RC2 is nice in a lot of ways, but it could be better. Specially the spelling support. It would be nice not to need to change the spelling languages every time I switch sites.

A big improvement is memory usage though! No hundreds of megabytes in use anymore... ah....... ;)
