what's the best web browser for linux?

I've tried Netscape and Konqueror. I'm currently using Mozilla, which seems to be the best so far. I know it and Netscape are pretty much the same, but Netscape never would display fonts right.

Anyone have a preference on which is best?

Is there one that's so good I just have to try it?

I also really like Mozilla. Just downloaded .06 and it is great. You may also want to try galeon. It uses the mozilla gecko engine but it is just a browser (no mail, aim, composer, etc) so it is a little faster.

I recommend giving Opera a shot too. Currently it isn't a free browser, though it just went free for Windows so I think we will see a free version for linux not to long from now. It doesn't support some features it probably should under linux (like java if I am not mistaken) but it is a good, lean, fast browser that will be very good once it is finished (at least I hope so).
