| Opera feels too much like a desktop in a browser for me. It just takes up too much desktop real-estate. 
 Firefox has it's issues. Especially if it's been idle for a while and you switch back to it .. it takes forever to get back up. But it's small and lite and doesn't take up too much real-estate at all.
 
 Initially it could load faster but once it's running and not idle it loads pages very fast. And it's 100% standards compliant which I love as a webmaster.
