I used IE for several years, in spite of my antipathy for things MS, for two main reasons:

1) History. I'm constantly going back to look for something I saw a day or two ago and Netscape was useless for that. (But does Windows IE have history? I was using IE on a Japanese version of Windows IE last night an accidently closed a window. I couldn't find any way to get it back without enterning the domain and then clicking through to the page....)

2) Scrapbook. I like the Scrapbook function. It's much easier to save a page than going to the File menu and easier to get back to the page, too.

Last week I started using Safari. It's great in most ways, but lacks the Scrapbook, so I might end up going back. The jury's still out....
