Cool I am going to give Firefox a try. I hate IE and Netscape seems to be getting as bad as IE. Is there a really high bandwidth page I can test it on?

Just updated to the latest Firefox myself. Was using a bleeding edge build of Mozilla and was noticing that certain things on some websites didn't work (like searching in a helpfile).

By far one of the best browsers out there. The fact that I can have 10 websites open, all in one browser, blows most everything else out by comparision.

As they say, my 2 pennies, which doesn't add up to much nowadays.

OK, all this talk got my curiosity piqued, so I just loaded it on my home machine. Wow, it is all you folks said it would be, and more. Yup, tabbed browsing rules!

OK what is up with this tabbed browsing? Is there something I am missing about it? Why not just have extra windows open instead of tabs. I do like Firefox better than IE (faster, no pop ups).

Tuvanhillbilly, Yippie , a convert !!!!! :-)

Eh the tapped browsing is a lot quicker than loads of windows open ... it's a bit easier to manage , at least i think so ..... stick with it for a bit and see what happens

Did you pay for Opera? I tried it for a while (a year ago) but then I had to pay something for it so I lost interest.
