That's my personal preference list, not an official Logitech statement:

- FF2 (without Firebug)
- Safari (Mac only, haven't tested enough on Windows)
- Opera
- IE7
- ...
- ...
- IE6

IE6 really is the only browser which should be avoided. All the others are imho 
fine with some pros/cons in some places. FF/Safari are fastest. But there are 
some minor compatibility issues with Safari (mostly worked around in the code - 
more to be discovered :-)). FF is fast and most compatible, but prone to issues 
with some add-ons. Opera is very compatible, but a bit slow in some specific 
parts. IE7 is not so very compatible and not the fastest neither.

Despite the above list I still stick with Opera, as it's generally my browser 
of choice. And I'm even using it as mail client... One oddity I discovered is 
its bad caching behaviour: it seems to request artwork, stylesheets and 
javascript files with every page. Which of course slows down browsing a bit. I 
didn't notice this behaviour with any of the other browsers

If you want to stick with Opera for general use, but prefer FF for SC7, you 
might be interested in Prism (http://labs.mozilla.com/2007/10/prism/). It's 
basically a FF wrapped in an executable to make an web page behave like a 
standalone application.
