FireFox?

[cicer]

All right, I'm just about ready to cave. I know, I know, everybody who's anybody uses FireFox already, but I have held out because I like my comfort zone and am afraid of having figure out how to work a new browser. But I'm almost ready to think about switching (mostly because the new version of IE is heinously ugly and I refuse to update, which kind of leaves me out in the cold). So tell me, is FireFox really all that and a bag of chips? Is it hard to use? Should I just suck it up and make the switch? Tell me what to dooo.

I haven't updated to IE 7 because I hate the look of tabs. However, if I want Firefox, I guess I'll just have to suck it up and get used to them. :) Thanks for sharing your opinion!

If you don't like tabs, you can use Firefox without. If you close all but one, it doesn't show them, and you can use hte 'tools' menu to set it to open links etc. in new windows instead.

But honestly, they're fab. :)

Oooo. Shiny. As I said to lady_ganesh, I didn't realize how easy it was to just not use them. For some reason I thought they were more of a default. Duh.

I'm testing them out and seeing if I can get used to them! I do tend to keep a lot of windows open, so I can see how this would really declutter things. I am fully prepared to fall in love with them and have to eat my words. XD

Firefox's tabs are much nicer and easier to use than IE's, btw.

Just tested both browsers out, and yes, they definitely are!
