I have been trying out the latest release candidates for both Internet Explorer 7 and Firefox 2.0.  I’m not going to going to go into an indepth review of their respective functionality, but let’s look at some of things that stand out.  First of all, if you’re an IE user, you’ve got to love the tabs.  A much needed improvement that Firefox users have been enjoying for a while now. Another area of improvement is the integrated RSS feed readers.  While this is a new functionality for IE, Firefox has improved so much that I would have to call it a new feature.  While I do like Microsoft’s, it is pretty much up to the tastes of the user  as to which is the better one.  Both browsers have added phishing protection and IE7 seems to have take some major steps in added security. 

Yeah, I know, you already knew all this.  Good, just making sure.  My real purpose was to get a feel from you as to which is the better browser.  I have been splitting time between the two so I have a limited experience with either one.  Those of you that are dedicated to one or the other will have a much richer experience to pull from and I would appreciate some feedback as to what your findings are.  I think that both browsers contain very good features and that the true winner is the user.  What are your thoughts?
