I'm still using IE 5.2 and I do find it slow. Especially when compared with the IE I have in XP at work. That IE is overall a better design than the version we have to use with macs. IE 5.2 sometimes just quits on me and when shopping on eBay (I'm doing a lot of Macintosh window shopping), it often gives me input errors when I want to use the back button and it often won't load the menu bar at the top of the eBay page. Netscape is slow as well, but not as quirky. I'm going to try Chimera now and I'll wait til Safari gets a resounding ok from the consensus out here.
