hi, to continue, as bowsers will be desktops, the better browsers/desktops are the FLOSS based ones, and essentailly there are only 2 FLOSS web-browser engines:-
Mozilla/gecko - FireFox Webkit - Chome, Safari and you can test yr browser here and also get stats on the features of all browsers incldg security, and IE still sucks. http://www.browserscope.org/alltests BTW I'm on Google Chome 4, just released for Mac, and its pretty good. Speedwise not much diff. with Safari which ws pretty fast, as they use the same engine...
