    Opera is not much faster but Firefox plugins is not much lesser (more, more and more). I will use Opera if it is very much faster.

    Opera is faster, got some features that firefox does not has but I guess firefox is better and popular.

    I just Installed Firefox 3, I think FireFox 2 was much better.

    In the Address bar when I try to type something it gives weird results for me unlike FF2.
    A sure Negative point if they don not improve on this I'm going back to FF2.

    I like Firefox but only for some of the plugins. But I just downloaded the new Opera 9.5 and it's even faster. YES it's faster than Firefox 3.
    Opera has a very smoothe scrolling which is nice, the default skin is amazing and I've always loved the speed dial. It's very clean.

    In my opinion, Firefox is overrated for sure. It just has a big list of plugins. I'll probably be using both browsers alot. Firefox when working and Opera for everything else.

    I always used Firefox and Firefox 3 is great all though I don't really like the theme on linux ubuntu since it uses the GNOME theme...=(
    About Opera, I only used it to test things and I never really liked it, I just download the newer version and it's AWESOME.
    It's faster and I really like how it looks like when you scroll, the look is great but I'll stick to firefox <3

    I prefer Opera. It looks cleaner and to me is faster. But Firefox is great for the plugins. Firefox 3 is a good step forward.

    I was a die hard firefox fan - because of all the cool plugins - i have also tweaked firefox with the speed+ config mod.

    However i recently installed opera - about a week ago and WOW it is fast - really FAST - so fast that i even set up a blog on opera.com and thanked them!

    If you need speed there is no comparison

    its very hard to determine a faster one. Apple claims Safari is the fastest, test shows FireFox is the fastest, and Opera just runs fast.

    I use FF3, as I find it both incredibly fast, reliable, adaptable, and very safe.
