I feel that Mozilla is by a country mile the best browser available, but the guy you're replying to there is right in my opinion. The average web user doesn't comfortably adapt to new environments all that well.

Have you seen opera 7.50? And opera on mobile phones is reality, not something "will never do it".

Oh, please. I've swithced to FireFox (Firebird then) a year ago just because it looks, feels and behaves way better than IE. And even before the switch I've been using NetCaptor (commercial software), which added some features to IE. I got those for free with Mozilla.
Which was the last version of Mozilla/Opera you have tried to use?
