what about a little script that checks the amount of ram of the computer and then set FF for more than 512mb ram as default and others when theres less ram? a window opening at first launch of the browser where you can choose between some browsers seems also ok, but it has to be easy and clear. The users we aim at don want to decide between "browsers" (whats this?) they never heard of, we should make a good default for them.
