There was a prominent news story several months back about a major
business being shown that Firefox is better than IE and the company reps
responded that it was too expensive. After being told it was free they
still weren't interested in using it. Maybe I'm making broad
generalizations here but IE still has the lions share of the market
place despite being inferior to Firefox. I feel that Microsoft has every
right to ship their own version of a web browser. The problem is that
it's incorporated into the OS itself and can't be uninstalled which
takes away consumer choice and feels like it's being shoved down our
throats. I would certainly uninstall it if it could be done and I
haven't heard that that has changed with Win7.

The extensions are what makes Firefox and probably the reason so many
businesses don't use it. I have a half dozen that I use that definitely
improve the functionality and security.

Opera 10 is really slick, much more polished than 9.64.
100% on Acid3 as well (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acid3)

If there are any other Opera fans out there they just came out with
Opera 10 which is really nice. A lot of subtle changes and a few new
features that solve all my issues with the 9.7 version.
And it is really quick.
