Did I say a lot?

Right now, your probaly wondering why I am so loaded down with addons, you proably think the browser runs super slow right now.

Well, you would be largely correct. but that's not the point.

It works fine for surfing the net, a little slow, but I can live with that.

The major selling point for me isn't how fast it is when me at the help, but rather how fast it is when I'm not there. I have it built up so it automatically does most of what I need without me even asking.

Like...
Checking my e-mail (all 5 accounts), checking my Google Reader, being ready to post to my blogs (Gota love ScribeFire) and being ready to chat with people on about 5 different IMs (Same place rocks!).

Right now, I'm treating Firefox more like a portal program than a browser, but it works for that, and I'm cool with it because it works really well.

anyway, that's my take on it. Gota love Fire Fox 3.
