Firefox is a browser that people "expect" to see on a Linux

Which people expect FF?
Put on FF, if someone wants to change it later, let them do it.
That’s what I would have said at one time (last week :) )
But FF is seriously ponderous with 128MB of RAM and I’m rapidly coming to
the conclusion that Midori is the way to go.
Out of interest I tried Midori out on 'my class' this afternoon and they
were quite happy with it. These people are computer illiterates who are
rather frightened of the things, though getting less so.
