But 3.x has been stable and memory usage is down. I even use Firefox on my Mac over Safari (even though Safari seems a bit faster). Once again due to being able to use Foxmarks.

there are many many little firefox features or add-ons that you don't think you need until you start using them, and discover they are in fact indispensable.

chrome does have some really nice features but i don't think it's quite robust enough *or* fully featured enough to become my principal browser (yet ?). however i do love being able to drag tabs out of / into windows. i wish i could do that in firefox. (i should check, there might be an add-on that let's you do that. )
