1. I use it ocassionally
Doesn't grab me enough to switch to it completely. I don't really like the way bookmarks are handled - there is no 'bookmarks' button as such. There is a bookmarks bar, which is fine for the links you use all the time, but the rest are kept in a folder called 'other bookmarks'.

There doesn't seem to be a command to click on a folder of bookmarks and 'open all in tabs' which is something I use all the time. This may be a function of the Firefox extension Tab Mix plus, but I really miss it.

Otherwise, it's not a bad browser, not bloated as Firefox is becoming these days.

2. I installed it on my Vista boot. I don't really see any reason to switch from Firefox with
its convenient add-ons
