I use Opera when Firefox or Konqueror cannot do something. I use Konqueror to maintain websites for clients, Firefox for most internet browsing. Epiphany crashes every time it tries to go to a webpage. I can't get Firefox to render the images on the US patent office website while Konqueror will but with poor quality. Opera works for that and with very clear images. Google's Chromium seems too bloated to me. -- Later, Darrell

I had no problems with the US patent office site BTW. Don't think I've ever used Epiphany. Chromium isn't the greatest but comes with developer tools already installed. Unlike Firefox where you have to install a add-on. However I don't like the look of Chromium. Opera has some potential, but I don't like clicking a link then being directed to a 302 Found The document has moved here. Apache Server at my.opera.com Port 80 page when browsing to another page in the opera domain. Really interested in Opera Unite though.
