I love the tabbed browsing and think that it displays web pages better than IE6. Having said that, now that IE 7 is out, I find myself using it a lot more. IE 7 is great improvement. The tabbed browsing isn't as nice as Firefox, but I love how it renders fonts. Using IE 7 on a PC feels almost like a Mac. Seriously. I made the switch to Firefox a few years back and love it.

Tried IE. Tried Netscape. Stayed with Netscape. It was generation 4 of browsers, Netscape had mail client, better looking, and vas faster. Few months later, tried Opera. Opera 4 was lightweight and fast as hell. Stayed with opera until generation 8. 2005. I switched to Firefox. Extensions are extensions are power are fun. I missed Opera's RSS and mail integration, but I have everything else. Google handles feeds and mail anyway.... Using IE is like sitting on a skateboard on highway. 1996. Tried IE. Tried Netscape.

Internet Explorer 7 is still installed on my main machine, although I hardly ever open it--maybe once a day. Maybe. I find myself using Opera much more than I ever use IE, although I have a lot of issues with the user experience of Opera. Oh well, Firefox for the win. If you are using Windows and haven't made the switch yet, do it now. However, I see no reason to use Firefox over Safari for the Mac. Safari is an excellent browser.

It's slow and clumsy. I use it when I want to run Firebug, but in those instances it's basically a standalone debugging application, not a general-purpose browser.
