Hmm, I'm with Rob on this one, I just don't know what to do. I like Opera, nice sleek look, what makes it less then Firefox? I haven't voted yet so the options are still open.

I've got to say, I used Internet Explorer since the beginning, until 3 months ago, I switched to FireFox. IT'S AS SMOOTH AS A BABYS BOTTOM.

I've never had a vendetta against Microsoft, yet I dont like Internet Explorer, or WMP, because I've tried other products and realised that they ARE better..

IE. No one has given me cuase to switch to it, and I doubt they ever will. It works for me, and thats all that matters.
I tried FF but it wasn't any better then IE.

FF:
  • renders coding properly -- bad developement is easily spotted and when it's broken, it doesn't try to render it anyways.
  • built in pop up blocking. -- i would download FF if all i did was use it to get tabs from mysongbook.com
  • tabbed browsing -- i always have more than one thing open
  • it has the google bar so i don't need to open new windows
  • skinable
  • doesn't have IE's image toolbar

IE:
  • lets me see how my stuff will look to the majority of people

guess who wins?

IE, cuase it doesnt matter what you use. It's your audiance. IE still retains a 90% share of the market for general computer users.

I like opera. I have yet to go to firefox but i will go this weekend. I need to reformat tommorow. And as a designer, I need to get all the versions of internet browsers to see what my clients are looking at when i design.
