I strongly believe (and somehow feel inside, taking the fact that someone gave them a million bucks, into consideration) that this Flock browser will be one of the greatest browsers out there. Biggest competition to IE7 in my humble opinion (even IE7 is still under heavy development, but so far it looks really promising). Firefox will have to step back (well not that simply, because we all can witness how many those "Firefox yellers" are out there... nothing that comes out is better than Firefox in their opinion, but they never mention it's their
humble opinion
). Of course, we all remember Netscape and its everlasting fight with IE and Microsoft...
With that said, I really think Flock will become a wonderful browser. Wonderful bunch of young developers, fresh minds, ready to do something good, and maybe most important, with unbelievable deep pockets (now when they got all that money). This will be a simple BOOM.
The fact is, use what makes you happy and do not force anyone to think like you think... there is nothing like ultimate browser, nor ultimate knowledge. People are individuals and they need to act and feel like that, otherwise we all will became insensitive robots... oh well, maybe sometimes we would feel a need to change our oil from time to time
Cheers !
