Just out of curiosity, how many different browsers are there?
I've only really heard of IE, Firefox, Opera and Netscape.

Oh, and is it really worth changing to Opera? Some seem to think it's a lot better than Firefox.
I would put my voice to FF rather then go Opera...although it loads fast and doesn't clutter up the browser screen like FF...besides there more plugins for FF then opera that I seen...so that would also be a incentive to stay with FF as they will come out soon with FF3...but I would still IE7, FF, Mozilla, Mozilla FF, Netscape, Opera on my system for browser options. I will remove Netscape on the next download of FF3 when it comes out as Netscape has stopped updating and support for Netscape at the end of March 2008 and I also plan to remove Mozilla as well. So I will be left with IE7, FF, Opera the three I used most and switch back and forth with. Cause some sites won't display properly with FF or Opera so I use IE7 to see what I am missing on those sites. So in the end don't just limited your browser options to one application. But if you keep IE7 make sure it is updated regularly that will keep it working and going smoothly for you.
