I considered Firefox because I found IE7 just so slow to open, it was painful. So I downloaded several other browsers and settled with Firefox. I loved that it opened faster than IE7, but I found little else that impressed me. Just as I was about to recommend Firefox, IE8 became available and I installed it. Wow, it opened fast, and in fact much faster than Firefox. I continued testing both browsers both here and at home. Frankly, I'm not impressed with Firefox and have installed IE8 on all our workstations. Currently I have Chrome installed as well on my workstation, and it loads faster than FF, but about the same as IE8. As to "increased productivity", that's subjective as far as I can tell. I know MAC users who claim they are more productive since switching to MAC. One is a professional writer, and I inquired as to whether his brain and fingers move any faster on a MAC then on a PC. He said NO, he just likes the MAC.But I'm at a loss as to increased productivity using one browser over another. The Internet is getting more bogged down every day and a browser can't change that!

I'm wondering if anyone here has changed their users default browser firm wide to firefox? If so, any issues to note? Any regrets?
