When u use the internet, you want to have a good browser.
For some people Internet Explorer 7/8 is good enough.

With Firefox you will notice that opening tabs is a lot faster and you can completely customize everything with add-ons.

Opera is pretty fast too but can be customized less then Firefox.

Choose a good browser ;)

1. Extensibility & customizability;
   • Firefox has a vastly superior extension API than Chromium or Safari, which brings the possibility of creating much more powerful extensions than the extensions of other browsers. On AMO there are 161,138,764 available, and there are a consider amount of high-quality ones among them. I'm currently using about 30 Firefox extensions, and I guess I couldn't live without them. :)
     
   • Numerous options to tune its behavior. (Even though a lot of them are hidden deeply in about:config.) Seeming Chrome/Chromium does not offer such abilities.
     
   • XUL interface brings a incredible level of interface customization, that you can literally change any part of its interface, through CSS/JavaScript.
     
2. Security. Firefox itself probably has more security holes exposed than Chrome/Chromium, but with NoScript it's a lot more safer.
   
3. No web development tools is so far comparable with Firebug, as far as I know.
   

1. Lack of process isolation. Well, they got plugin processes isolated in Firefox 3.6.4, but the tabs aren't isolated yet.
   
2. Speed. Well, Firefox is slower than most other modern browsers except IE for now. Start-up is slower, page loading is slower, JavaScript execution is slower. Nevertheless, as another person pointed out, the productivity enhancement brought by the extensions of Firefox is enough to cover the loss of time caused by its slow speed.
   

1. Chromium/Chrome is indeed way faster in JavaScript than even Firefox 4 Beta. (Probably JagerMonkey will close this gap slightly, though.) I don't think JavaScript execution speed is predominant factor when choosing a browser, though. The era of playing a FPS on a webpage with JavaScript has not yet come. :)
   
2. Chromium/Chrome does not render widgets in webpages with my nice GTK+ theme due to internal limitations, but Firefox does.
