I have been using QupZilla daily on both of my Lubuntu netbooks instead of
FF. For daily use, it works great, it is sooo much faster and with a great
deal of functionality. My only observation is the limited number of plug
ins at this time. Otherwise, I really like it and hope it continues to
mature

@Israel - Thanks for all the input on Qupzilla. I really like it and with
further maturation will prove to be a very good lightweight browser. You
may wish to reconsider Duckduckgo and use startpage or  Ixquick ( both
related to each other) if privacy is a concern or desire. If you have the
time you may wish to read this about Duckduckgo:

Best,
