When are you going to try them? You cannot have tried a recent version
and compared it to the latest IE.

IE7 is a total crock. Used Firefox for years but its become memory-hogging
bloatware especially if you use multiple tabs. Reputedly Firefox 3 will fix
this but its only in Beta and, as is the way of such projects, much of the
potential content will probably not make the cut.

ISTR that IE7 only runs on XP and Vista?

A month or so back, are you suggesting that FF have completely
rewritten the software, that would be the only way they could get rid
of the 'clunky' nature of FF, as for IE7 - totally agree, it's a pile
of pooh, some of which is being caused by trying to compete with all
that is bad in FF... If I wanted to drop IE and would either opt for
Opera or run another box running Linux for office and (most) browsing
needs.

Well, I've been using what is now seamonkey for years, and I find it does
what I want. nor do I find it "clunky", whatever that may mean.
Opera is pretty good but fails on one important (to me) feature, the ability
to have separate user profiles.
