Yeah! Running each tab in a new process is something really desired. As for the omnibar, tabs-in-the-title-bar, colored tabs, and the-most-commonly-visited-sites-in-the-new-tab functionality, they are all available via add-ons. It would be nice to see these features built-in to some people, but it would only add to the clutter to some others. So, to me, it is good to have a choice of whether to add some or all of those features via add-ons.
But it would be nice to add those features if the installation program can be made like that of, say, MS Office, in that the setup should offer choice to install the individual features. That way, the users would get absolutely what they need. For not-so-techie users, an option of Express Install would be fine, which would install the most commonly used features. Just a thought!
I didn't get the author's point "individuals who actually consciously think about what browser to use". How would these individuals be distinguished? Was there a test? And just how is the status of FF being the second most popular browser misleading? It IS close to truth, if not entirely true. 50 people in the Times Square are no way the representative of the whole world. FF is good but not enough yet. Every new update breaks so many add-ons, thereby decreasing its usability considerably. Recently, there was severe memory leakage problem, which is not yet fully solved. It takes longer than all other browsers to start up - more so if many add-ons are installed. (And add-ons are a fact of life with FF; they are actually the primary reason for its popularity. Leaving out add-ons, there's nothing in this browser that is impressive compared to any other browser, even IE.) So FF, with the add-ons, is almost justified having the second position. (Now whether IE should really have the first position is a whole new discussion.)

I like Chrome. It's just like a better Opera without the stuckup fans. In my opinion, Chrome only beats Firefox on the placement of the tab bar and the elimination of the title bar.

I prefer Safari, myself. I interact with it better than Chrome. But most of all I like choice; if I were forced to use Chrome, I would be very unhappy.

Once you get everything set up in Firefox 3.5, you don't want to use any other browser. For me personally it is the most full functioned Browser around. You will never include everything to make everybody happy, but if you need something, Firefox likely has the add on to provide it. I will stick with Firefox until something else provides the Web experience that I want.

For me Opera is the best browser there is. It's ZOOM feature is the best and it is very important for people with eye problem. And it is fast. It's features are always ahead of the other browsers.

I absolutely agree with the "Running each tab in a new process", so that when a tab crashed, you don't lose all other tabs and windows that you haven't finish yet.

I would like Firefox to add a "sort by name" right-click context menu feature so that when I right-click on a bookmark I can easily alphabetize my bookmarks without having to go through all the contortions that are currently required to sort bookmarks by name.
When I'm using Ubuntu Jaunty 64-bit, trying to left-click drag a Firefox bookmark to a desired location causes the whole system to hang.
A sort by name bookmark feature would make the whole user experience, at least for me, friendlier.
