Opera. I love that its usage is ten times the web average, on these forums.

Also, moved to Technology and Programming.

Opera. I doubt I'll ever switch, especially after Opera 10 that will have faster browsing and spell check.

Added more browsers to poll options.
Although, they are good browsers, I suggest you to take a look at them.

I just can't see parting with my beloved Firefox and my vertical tabs extension and the web dev toolbar and zotero etc...

So if they were bad browsers, we'd look at them? I don't get this Tunco guy.

1) ew.
2) I actually like Safari's dev stuff better (some of which Chrome has, as it uses webkit, but it is buggy)
3) meh, wouldn't use it much

I'm still on Chrome, and ridiculously happy that they finally fixed middle-click and scroll in v2 :D

Firefox 3.5 Beta 4
Testing it...
Firefox default theme sucks, but you can get really nice themes like AeroFox and others.

Firefox is too complicated for me. (After using Chrome for months)
Btw, I downloaded Opera, I'm glad that I downloaded it.
But still, I think I'll go with Chrome for a long time.

I'll take Windows ClearType over your OS X style antialiasing anyday. Type on OS X looks too black and somewhat crude to me, particularly at smaller sizes.

I've actually got an XP. But I agree, it can look hideous if you set font smoothing to strong. I choose the "Best for CRT" option and it doesn't look too overbearing.

Gasp! FreeType is far superior to ClearType!
Although, I'll admit light text on dark background looks emetic in Safari unless (on webpages) you add a text-shadow with no distance x or y and a 1px blur the same color as the background: then it looks really nice.

See, you shouldn't have to use CSS hacks to make text non-ugly. CSS hacks are for IE6, not modern browsers!
You know what I really hate? Safari on Windows defaults to OS X style font smoothing. It's terrble!

^That made no sense.

I'm still using Chrome.

I like OS X style font smoothing.

Continue to bicker.
