I have switched to firefox for sometime now, especially that I have been facing problems with IE7 and gmail
What I like about firefox as a user’s point of view:
Until now no unexplainable problems, like my web cache is full and it needs to be cleared
I like the dictionary feature, IE should adopt this
I had several login sessions opened when my PC suddenly powered off. When I started again, firefox gave me the choice to restore my sessions, when you think about it, it is a two way approach both security vs convenience
I can select something of a website and only view that part’s source code, this is a huge time saver. I used it, to find a java script that displays time
It would be nice if they add a small tab next to already opened tabs in case you want to open a new tab and don’t want to go through the menu, just like it’s done in IE7
As performance, I haven’t noticed a huge difference and perhaps I can say I cannot seem to notice the difference between firefox and IE. When opening multiple tabs of youtube, firefox consumes the CPU rather generously, but then again maybe this is related to the fact it is running on Vista.
For Microsoft web based, not all the features are supported if you are not running on their platform “IE” yes Microsoft knows how to keep their products running. So when checking my email exchange account for example, I do it over IE.
