Who is Opera? Man, you need to find out. I've been using it since the late 1990's, wouldn't give it up for anything. Great stuff!!! I've been using tabbed browsing, mouse gestures, etc. etc. before anybody else ever dreamed of such a thing. It's a nice browser - super fast, lightweight, teeny tiny, lots of great customization stuff. On the Mac and Linux, I find it beats Firefox hands down with its zippy performance. Firefox just feels bloated and sluggish to me on those platforms, so I only use it when I really need to. The Windoze version of Firefox is great though... When I'm stuck at work and have to use software furnished by the evil empire, I do use the Portable Firefox variety, have it installed on the ol' thumb drive. Very nice to have around. Anything's better than M$ Internet Exploiter, so kudos to our friends up north for trying something different! May your machines not propogate as much filth as your neighbours to the south eh! lol!

I friggin hate Safari! We use Macs at work and Safari SUCKS! I use Firefox on both my MAC at work and my PCs at home. Opera is good also. Too much crap with IE.

Anyone else been having more and more problems with pages working in Firefox? I'd think it would be moving the opposite direction, but I've had more problems the last month or so than I did 2 years ago.
