I totally agree, the infantile comments about this sucks or that blows just goes to show the intellect of the poster. Use what suits you, personally I use FF 99.9% of the time. The only reason I use the others is to check my websites for compatibility issues. Each browser has it's own flaws especially dealing with CSS. I can't really blame any one browser for having the most flaws. I build sites to be 100% WC3 valid xhtml strict, but end up having to use loose standards because pages display different in every browser. I am a big Firefox fan, but it is not perfect. It take incredibly long to load compared to everything else. I am using minimal plugins and the default theme. There is a memory issue, I use a memory recovery application and solved that problem. I would have to say the least inspiring of the bunch is Opera(the free version), and Safari. Not that they are bad, but if I had a choice I would use IE7 as opposed to them. Tabbed browsing? I think the Maxthon extension for IE was the first or at least the first I ever was aware of. I thought the browser wars were over.

I'm sure as the growing number of Linux users increases that helps as well as Firefox is default with many distributions.

And why don't MS start helping develop the Linux and *BSD kernels, KDE and GNOME too? This has always been the way MS work- they take an existing idea or product, change it so that it is incompatible with the existing standards and then make all Windows users adopt it. People can't help improve IE because it not open source, but even if it was I don't think there'd be much interest as FF has always been open source as is better in many respects. If Opera was open sourced that'd be a different matter. Besides, if MS dropped IE to help with FF they'd be admitting defeat and losing another way of locking people into using MS operating systems and apps. @43 + 46
