Okay, I’ve read the comments, and I decided it wouldn’t hurt anything to merely try Firefox. I’ve been using it sporadically on my personal laptop for 3 days, and on my work laptop for a day. First impressions? I recognize the power it gives a user to add on elements that they want, and to exclude those they do not. I’m not one that needs to have that decision making power, though. Give me the whole package, and I’ll decide what I do and do not want to use. Second, Netscape 7.2 has not wigged out on me once since I installed it, and that has impressed me mightily. Today I was checking out my feeds on Bloglines, and Firefox went a little nutty, shut down, and never gave me an error message. I was not overly fond of that. It reminded me of my nightmare years with Netscape.
I will give Firefox a fair and open trial run here, but my first impression is that I stand to gain little or nothing by switching from Netscape 7.2 right now. And yes, there is no better browser for viewing midget porn than Firefox (inside-ish joke).
Correction: It should read "elderly midget porn". IE is better for straight midget porn.

The only thing that bugs me about Firefox is that it occasionally crashes due to the stupid TalkBack thing, and I can't figure out how to disable it. (That's a Netscape "feature," I think, and I always had problems with the TalkBack in Netscape, too.) Otherwise, I've been using various releases from Mozilla for over a year, and find it to be a really good, speedy browser.
Thats ELDERLY midget porn!
Being a power-blogger, I thought you'd be impressed with the 'Live Bookmarks' feature. No?
