FF2 or IE7?

I'm torn.  IE7 is quite nice and some of the same FF annoyances exist, but I am noticing more and more pages that are coded strictly to standards, making IE not work.  I still like opera too, but it seems to be losing ground. 

My heart is firmly set on Opera. Yeah you could call me one of the devotees who actually use Opera, but for good reasons:

1. Its Fast
2. Its not bloated (Look at the memory usage of FF2 and IE7)
3. Best at sticking to Standards
the list goes on...

I use it everyday, and 99.99% of websites I visit work fine in it. The only websites I come across that don't work are normally microsoft websites e.g: Windows Update, Windows Live and Windows Live spaces. And I have ie6 on backup for those.

Interface wise, opera seems to have been ahead of its time.  both FF2 and IE7 seem very opera-esque.  I just got a new computer - I need to install opera again.

Something I like about Opera is, that if I do a reinstall of windows, I can just copy across all my old Opera settings and it will retain all my settings, wands and layout.

Unfortunately these settings files are platform independant.

that's a good feature.  I just bought a new computer and the thought of copying over my favorites does not excite me.

favourites are normally ok, as they seem to reside in a central folder for each user. In lots of applications, the custom settings are the most annoying thing to copy across as many of them reside in different place including the registry. Opera is nice and thoughtful.

From what I understand of Macs, most mac applications work that way too.

I don't know about the data, but apparently the applications are completely stored in one folder, meaning one place to copy, one place to delete.  Novel concept.

I think MS' registry concept has grown over complex and has caused me many a late night trying to recover a system.
