I find FF to work much better on Windows 7 compared to IE8 and IE9. I recommend it any day.

Like it so far. Speed in par with the current nightly 8x builds. I had to install a copy of Java 32-bits since it is not recognizing the 64-bit

Firefox 7.0 Beta

- available yet on the beta channel

- promoting better and lower memory usage

- faster synching ...

As always be careful with the add-ons, I strongly recommending using this in parallel with the current 6.0 official so not to worry about extensions incompatibility. I am a perpetual "nightly" user of Firefox and can only say that it is getting better, faster everyday.
