Who wants Firefox 2.0?

The download server is in the process of being Slashdotted, so it'll be slow.

It was on reddit before it was on /. :P

And nope. I tried to install it on a flash drive (just like my current mobile version of 1.5) and it crapped out. I need firefox at my school comp :/

It is out officially now. I am using it. FireFox is still read as spelled incorrectly in spell-check.

Firefox isn't for me.
EDIT:
Actually, you made a typo. You spelled it "FireFox".

If you read the note, they talk about how what slashdot and other sites did was harmfull by directing tens or hundreds of thousands of users towards a single server, sending that one poor persons bandwidth costs through the roof. Never link directly to a file if a download script is in place to take advantage of a mirror farm.
