Ah, so you are the 'Mac Switcher' .

I'm not those early adopters, so I'm still using Firefox 1.5. I'm too get used to Firefox's shortcut key (ctrl+tab, ctrl+w, ctrl+t), so I'm probably gonna stick to Firefox 2.

I've stopped using IE since it induced lots of viral attacks to my computer. I always format my computer back in those days cos I have no idea how to remove those problematic script injected into my computer.
things get better now with firefox, I havent do formatting for over a year now

FF 2 is faster than FF 1.5. I love FF because the extensions, too.

Firefox is not the fastest browser but it is the most powerful browser(with extensions installed).

If want to choose a fast browser, I would use Safari(Mac only).

The only thing I like about FireFox2 is the tabbed browsing, other than that, I don't see it's better than IE7

All that glitters is not gold and both FF and IE are not rediscovering anything.

Since the late 1990s there have been multi-tabbed browsers, and many of them supporting plugins, addons and skins.

Most of them based on IE rather than Mozilla browsers and with some of the capability that FF claims as "new" feature.

New is indeed CSS, DOM, Ajax and other feature that new browsers support today, because not available before.

Other than this, everything existed for years as freeware, shareware and open sources.

My favorite? none, as webmaster I have to try all of them as they are.

I prefer FF and most of the time using it, but some time using IE if the page not loading in FF.

As long as it's not IE6 or below I'm fine with it.
