What you've asked is almost like Gnome versus KDE questions. I haven't used Konqueror for ages, but when I did, I found that it supported far less WWW technologies than Firefox did. Or, supported them far worse. e.g. Page styling, scripting, etc. Try them both, and see what you think of them against each other. I have a strong aversion to applications that mix file managing and web browsing (i.e. Konqueror), like Microsoft did with Explorer. You're never quite sure how many of the functions of one can be abused by the other. While it's not open-source, I have a slight preference for Opera over Firefox. I find Firefox's propensity for jamming up and refusing you to let you do anything while some tabbed content is downloading, or rendering, to be extremely annoying. e.g. You're reading some page, middle click on a link to load it up in the background in another tab, and while that's happening you're stuck, unable to scroll through the thing you were currently reading. -- (This computer runs FC7, my others run FC4, FC5 & FC6, in case that's important to the thread.)
