Internet browser poll

[riffer]

Sorry to also be a pedant but Safari is available for Windows.

And Firefox is available for Linux.

I've also used them.

[NordieBoy]

And another here. Kubuntu Gutsy.
Firefox Linux

Opera, FireFox, Konqueror, links, IE 6 on Slackware.
OperaMini 3.1.7 on Palm Treo.

[Skunk]

Tut-tut Dan. You of all people should have included Safari for Windows in that list as an option on it's own...

Where the heck is Opera?

It's been faster and safer than FF for years. Easily the best browser out there.

me too and you're dead right...most secure out there, it's my browser of choice but I use pretty much all of them since I have to test my sites on most browsers

[Deviant Esq]

What's all this banter about Firefox being slow? Never really caused any such problems for me, or not that I'm aware of. Much prefer using FF to Internet Exploder...

[Usarka]

So what do all these other browsers do for me that IE doesn't??????

[SlashWylde]

IE

I don't see why there is all the fuss over Microsoft products...it works 99.8% of the time for me.

Yeah, but Linux works 99.99999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999 99999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999 99999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999 99999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999 99999999999999999999999998% of the time.

+1 Opera rocks. 2PCs and a PDA no probs at all.

At work I use Firefox cos I will not use IE. It let me down once too often.

Bloody new fangled Web. Bring back gopher, XModem and Kermit. I remember being sat in the Physics lab at Uni in 93 being blown away by NCSA Mosaic (even though it was on a monochrome screen X-Windows Solaris box).

Umm...browser. IE7 for porn as it's so easy to erase the files. FF for most other sites.

I expect the Linux hippys will be using browsers they've written themselves in C or something equally sad.
