    I have voted for FF3. IE8 has some pretty major bugs right now from what I have read and althought FF3 isn't quite at the stage IE8 is at, FF3 will no doubt come over as the winner.

    Mozilla, You Rule!

    I like firefox, and have since i found it, but i must admit, IE7 was nice, if IE8 is better still, i will think about switching back

    FF rocks. For some unknown reason, IE now loads very slowly and I've stopped using it altogether.

    I hate FF3... at least the beta. If that's the way it's going to be released in the future (interface wise), I'm switching back to IE.... or just stick with FF2 ;).

    FF3 is going to be faster and packed full of features once it's released.

    Here is my question..

    How is FF better then IE? What do you have to prove your Theory? Remember a theory is just that.. What "FACTS" do you have to say that FF is better then IE??

    And if you think I am a IE lover.. I am typing this on FF 2.0 right now.. :)

    What I do hate is when folks just throw crap like FF... BOOYA! etc..

    Sorta like the "APPLE JUICE LOVERS"... (BTW Buying a Apple next month as well!)

    What facts make FF better. Remember the Memory hog with FF? (That has since been fixed)..

    I myself like FF for one reason.. and one reason only... "PLUG-INS"...

    Later

    Have you ever download Netscape?

    Same Mozilla technology than Firefox but with the full options set. Firefox only gives you a few of them in order to control you.

    Anyway I don't like Mozilla browsers and the only IE version which liked me (5.5) is not compatible with modern web standards... Opera fails in a few aspects, Safari is only available through my iPod and.... I'm going insane with all these annoyances [​IMG]

    It takes a lot for someone to install a new browser when they already have one with an absurd amount of money and dev hours put into it. Clearly FireFox is massively ahead of the game.
