The Bottom Line If only for the speed, lightness of being, and security alone, Firefox remains our Editors' Choice for best Internet browser. Firefox's tabbed browsing, RSS support, security features, and overall cool factor make it more attractive than Internet Explorer. Intuitive interface design and easy access to useful features make iWork the best office suite choice on the Mac. Though it lacks some of Microsoft Office's advanced options, iWork '09 is an emerging powerhouse in its own right. Microsoft's release should retain its browser base but doesn't yet have enough to lure loyal Firefox users back to Internet Explorer.
