Small, fast, open-source (security alnomality corrected within one day), customizable out the whazoo with your choice of 70+ extentions, NO POP-UP ADS and a choice to add any out of a couple of hundred search engines to your browser.
...and it's free....

5. GNU/Linux/Open Source/Free Software is amazingly bipartisan |
|
Case in point: Richard M. Stallman, bearded atheist liberal, and Eric S. Raymond, self-titled libertarian pro-war gun nut. The two lead voices in the FOSS world. Often wrote joint public statement (in reply of shenanigans from SCO or Ballmer from M$, for instance).
Stallman is the author of GCC, the compiler suite of choice for all free OS's. And Emacs. Raymond writes smaller but more varied pieces of software, among which is Bayesian anti-spam filtering for e-mail.
