I use FireFox almost exclusively for FiberglassRV. I like it because I can open a bunch of instances all in tabs. As a moderator, that comes in extremely handy when searching for something. I don't constantly need to go back to where I was initially. Just click that particular tab and I'm good to go

I just opened my home page for the morning. It consists of 17 web sites, each in its own colored tab, including FiberglassRV, Scamp Yahoo, the two Casita sites and two Honda sites. After viewing recent activity I close each tab and move on to non-fiberglass activities.

A couple of sites I keep in tabs 24/7, set to auto-reload every 15 minutes for breaking news for the next time I get back to my computer should my garage floor painting job ever end.

I've recently started using Firefox and enjoy it, mostly because it lets me do stuf that IE won't, but tabs is awkward IMHO in FF compared to IE7. Ctrl+T vs click on new tab. Found (and reported) some commercial sites that didn't work right with FF, plus it sometimes locks up with Yahoo Mail Beta. No serious preference at this stage, although I find myself using FF more often.

I did notice that it uses a LOT more CPU % than IE7 does...

Pete, you will want to add Tab Mix Plus which will open up all the niffty tabbing options. The only time I have to click on "new tab" now is when using the Google toolbar to go to the Google site, everything else, bookmarks, links on web pages, links in emails, etc. will open in a new tab as that is what I set in Tab Mix Plus. https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/1122

There is also another add-on that allows one to switch the tab from Firefox to IE - IE Tab. I use this when a website is not FF friendly. Works well. https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/1419
