I went from IE to FF3, to Chrome, back to FF3, then to FF4.  At present, I
have settled on FF4.

I find that Chrome and FF4 are equally fast, and equally bloated.  And so is
IE9.  They're all good and bad in the same ways.  It doesn't really matter
which one you choose nowadays...  

Ironically, my main reason for not using IE is because it makes a "click"
sound every time you click something.   ;-)
