Oooh multiple tabs. Bit like Firefox 2 then.

But you are right Joe, Firefox crashes on some people (3.0 was a nightmare - another Mark 1)- I found that upgrading Java helped with that. Apparently Firefox 3.5 is due out any time and will apparently be faster than IE8.

In the end, competition between browsers is a Good Thing. If people like IE8 why not stick with it; just be wary about security holes ...
