I've had about 80-90 tabs open in firefox for the past week and firefox hasn't crashed. I am using about 280MB of ram though. But it's not really slowing the computer down so BFD.

I started using FireFox 0.9 or whatever it was because there was a spell-checker plug-in. But then when I upgraded to FireFox 1.0, the spell-checker stopped working. So now I use IE w/ ieSpell. If someone would make a spell-checker that works with FireFox, I'd switch right back.

I use Maxthon. Tried Firefox, and went back to Maxthon (more features, no problems whatsoever).

After my recent adware incident, I don't go near IE except for windows update. FF all the way.

I'm a FF geek. My name is on the NYT ad. I have a firefox stuffed animal sitting on my monitor.
