i don't think 3 is a lot of browsers to choose from.
anyway choice is good
it means we don't have to use that crappy browser known as Internet Explorer.

well a downside of all these browsers are when you design sites, it a massive pain to get things working right.

the firefox browser has a lot of the code from netscape. netscape donated it to mozilla.
i think it exists to take advantage of the companies, if you look at most large corporations they will have netscape installed (even though everyone uses IE).

I disagree, it actaully depends on your system setup to which browser is faster

Ye but opera also has some problems with viewing websites. Firefox used to be now because such a large number use it most websites work properly and sometime better in FF! Opera still has problems so I think until they are sorted it will never get bigger.

Not if you build it for Firefox and redirect anything that isn't

Code:
<?php
if (!stristr($_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT'], "Firefox")) {
header( 'location:http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/' );
exit();
}
echo('HTTP_USER_AGENT identified as Firefox');
?>
well that is one option but i would guess my hits would significantly lower.
