Reality Check for FireFox

Peter Torr'sarticle on his initial reaction to installing and using FireFox is certainly interesting and reminds you just how easily you forget some basic tenants of installing software these days. Microsoft has had years to tweak the useability of the user's interaction with the browser and it is nice to be reminded about the attention to detail. I am sure we will see some of the concerns he raised get addressed in future releases of FireFox.

For myself,my initial foray into FireFox was quite pleasant but I am still using IE as my stock browser of choice (without any particular reason). In all honesty, my hope is that FireFox will drive IE to become a better and more standards compliant browser rather than choosing it as my browser of choice.

It is great to have choices again ;-)
