Someone I know was complaining about how slow there computer was running. So I booted it and realized that IE7 was taking an absurd amount of time to load. So I installed FF and it starts and runs MUCH faster.

I find firefox 2 really heavy, but firefox 3 is a ton better

I second that. stability is also getting worse. I've gone back to 1.0.8 which is the last of the 1.0.* line, after that came 1.5.* line now 2.0.* is the current line.
1.0.* series is when they really consatraited on speed & stabilty.

Regardless of speed and/or reliability, it is still better than IE7.

This seems like a solution for MS.
