"We review the latest from Opera (Version 8.0) and Netscape (a late beta of its 8.0 build) to see how they compare with the current IE and Firefox. We also try to look ahead at what the upcoming IE7 might have in store to win back us-ers and run down what we feel are the best add-ons to extend the functionality of the leading browsers."

Pretty bad review, they state a reason for recommending firefox is its speed when that isn't one of firefox's strengths in the current wars.

I've tweaked my Firefox to be faster than my IE loadtimes.
