Default Browser in Linux?

What browser do you use? I use FireFox but I went through a stage where I used Opera but it is very lacking. For instance, the plugins in Opera are just floating javascript toolbars that don't even "dock" to the top of the browsers. One thing that I really missed was a spell checker.

Eventually I went back to FireFox which works perfect and FireFox 3 is even better IMO.

I'm a big fan of FireFox. I had an ATI card on my last laptop and FireFox didn't work well (memory leak I believe) so I did use Opera for a while. However, I am now on a new laptop with Nvidia (which is the Video card I will always buy now) and FireFox works perfect.

Yes, Mozilla FireFox runs on Linux which is what I use and my favorite. It is unbeatable.

I use Firefox, because it's the default, and I like that (even on Windows)

Yey, Firefox too!

Although once I tried a flavor that came with Konquorer (?) or something like that... and I used it a little bit.
