    Firefox 2.0 Alpha 1 Released

    Developer preview release of the next full version of Mozilla Firefox was released today.  From what I have seen in online commentary thus far (which is pretty limited) it will have changes to tabbed browsing, improved bookmarking (using an integrated database -- SQLite), and hopefully a smaller memory footprint.

    It does *not* pass the ACID II test, but seeing as how Opera only was able to do it in a build specifically designed just to pass the test--a build that has specific features just to pass the test that later will most likely not make it into a release--its not such a big deal that the test isn't passed.
