I use Firefox since it is on both my PCs and my Mac - I have the FOxmarks extension on it so my bookmarks are always synchronised across all my machines. Just occasionally I will use Safari on the Mac and Internet Explorer on the PC but I'm not keen on either of them - I guess familiarity winds and I'm most familiar with Firefox

Firefox 3 Sucks!
Firefox 2 is far superior to Firefox 3 on my G4 iBook as far as I can see! It's absolutley no faster on intitial load and is actualy slower loading the graphics on some pages compared to version 2!
Also, a lot of the add ons available for version 2 have not been adapted for version 3, so I can't use Spinfox and the Firefox 2 Theme for Firefox 3 is very buggy and I prefer the colourful look of the Firefox 2 GUI!!
Firefox 3 was bad news all roound for me. Superior Gecko engine my foot!!!

- Way... way too many specs to list.
Haven't had a single problem with FF3, including during it's beta cycle. Other than the new security feature that drives me bonkers with firewalls at work. Add ons not being picked up right away have always been an issue since the Mozilla days... if those are important, wait 6 months before getting a new version.
