OK, I've said it before, but now it's official. I am dragging Opera and Internet Explorer into the trash can as I type this–at least on my G4 Cube running OS X. After a week and a half of gruelling surfing, Mozilla 1.0 has earned its place as my default browser.

And I've got to say one feature of Mozilla pushed it over the top for me: the tabs. That, and the popup window blocking.

The mail client is okay; I'm now using it for one of my many mailboxes. While it certainly surpasses the Netscape mail client in many ways, I'm not quite sure I'm ready to dump my standalone mail client quite yet.

Still, I don't think I can be as ebullient as eWeek about a web browser. Okay, I get it guys, you like open source, you hate Microsoft. For your own sake, get over it.
