I use FireFox, but safari is a close second.

I use Opera mainly because my friend told me to try it out (its much better than IE) and im too lazy to get FF.

One thing i like about Opera is that every time i turn my computer on i have the option to continue from where i was when i turned it off. Also when i open a new tab this "Speed Dial" thing comes up with 9 different webpages that i chose.

But you have to download an addon. Opera does it standard issue.

Opera here, by the way. It's faster, smaller RAM usage, and isn't bloatware like FF. I just use FF for BoB here on CC. But I usually keep FF closed. Because it steals about 10,000k or 20,000k more RAM than Opera.

FF is good for you computer noobs tho.

Oh, they finally took a hint, and tossed it on standard issue in the newest release? Hah. Besides, Opera users have been enjoying since like Opera 3 or 4. We're up to 9.5 now.

and... FireFox doesn't need 5.0's because it is fine now.
