I am an old Safari fan - but with my new iMac, I would like to try other browsers. Has anyone used the new Firefox and can recommend it. Thanks.

It works. But it is a browser like any other. Not too fast to launch but no problems so far. As a recommendation, I like Camino (free) and iCab (not free but very fast and secure). Safari is still loading picture-heavy sites rather slowly. If you ever experience any problem with watching movies in Firefox, it would most probably be not its fault but Flash's.

Today, I made these forums the home page for my copy of iCab, which still saves a Web page like no other browser.
