    Maxthon is another decent browser. Very fast and easy to use.

    Opera for me. Big fan of the speed dial. It is really useful, sometimes it takes me half an hour before I notice that my keyboard is switched off

    Laptop: IE
    Desktop: Firefox
    Mobile :Opera

    Not sure why but find IE and Firefox are pretty much on par these days.

    Use a crappy Nokia C5-03 , Mobile Opera has made some difference to the phone. The internet actually works and I can open any site i need or want to.

    Opera. Cache in ramdrive and it flies. Native mouse gestures and speed dial FTW :)

    Firefox then Chrome would be my preference, I'm slowly trying to switch to Chrome but I keep having some issues with it, such as passwords or logins not being remembered on some sites (Firefox does this easily), also the mousewheel scrolling in Chromium doesn't scroll enough, only 2 lines at a time, whereas it's normal on Windows.
    It also doesn't play animated gifs sometimes which is annoying.

    My issue with Firefox is syncing it's addons and profile between computers is cumbersome.

    I started as a chrome fan, but then I heard of a browser that's got everything that chrome has with a couple of built-ins added to it, so I tried it out, liked it, and used it since. It's called Torch and it's also chromium-based.
    So I guess that I'm under the "Other" category. :D

    Not heard of that one, it looks cool. Cheers for the heads up!
