When is the last time you used Firefox?
Some like Marshall Kirkpatrick had multiple complaints about IE7's integrated RSS capability yet the soon-to-be-released Firefox 2.0 doesn't even have an integrated RSS reader.

How do you think I got to your website???? No, I just check the website every day.... No I subscribed to your RSS feed 6 months ago. I have probably had a ZDnet RSS feed for over a year.

IE7 is a nice upgrade, but as far as extendability and usability, Mozilla Firefox is still supreme.

Oh... and this new built in spell checker is nice on Firefox 2.0. I did think about that idea for IM, but never for posting information on websites. Way to go Mozilla team.
