Well, it has converted me thoroughly. Firebird is now my default browser and I&#8217;ve only opened IE twice since I made it my default browser about 5 days ago. Both times were to utilize website features that were enabled only on IE (since IE currently has more than 90% marketshare, such features can be considered univeral). Both times didn&#8217;t really accomplish anything useful. Point being, no IE-proprietary features are useful in general browsing activities. Firebird is fast, sleek, not security-hole-ridden like IE, and seems to render everything at least as well as IE, if not better. And it is fast. PNG&#8217;s work properly. Favicon&#8217;s don&#8217;t get lost every time. Its got tabbed browsing, something I&#8217;m not very good at using yet, but its still very nice.
