Benchmarks The first webpage was served off a NeXTcube at CERN, Switzerland, developed by Tim Berners-Lee. He also wrote the first web browser, confusingly named WorldWideWeb - the world of web browsers has come a long way since then, more or less turning into a platform of their own. This puts increasing pressure on web browsers to be really really good pieces of software, and as such, ZDnet has a 7-page comparison of the world's major web browsers, comparing Internet Explorer, Firefox, Opera, and Safari.

I will for SURE give a try in Safari after reading this.

I have been using Firefox 3 since alpha releases and it's amazingly fast compared to the second version. Sometimes, at work, I need to shift back to IE and it's crazy to notice how slow/unresponsive it is...

Funny to see that even Apple, and Opera too,did a better job than MS on Windows.

But awesome to see browser war back. The hardest thing is to make the users to shift even with so many arguments.
