i know and love firefox, but is it too intensive for my setup?? would i be wiser to go with a lighter web browser? is there such a thing?

i'd like to be able to switch between web browsing and word processing; music playing as well perhaps

On slow computer the fast browser i find is opera.
(Dillo is faster of course but can only been use on an emergency, it's not a real day by day browse since it won't render anything more complex then plain html...)

I would definitely go with Opera, too.
