So that would also be an incentive to try Mozilla, which is just fine with me (an avid Mozilla fan...)

Everyone that I know who tried recent releases of Mozilla, never wanted to look back afterwards. Today, three years after the release of IE6, it is an outdated browser whose huge market-share is mostly due to ignorance and due to users who are too lazy to try something better when their current software is adequate for their immediate needs.

Why would it? link prefetching only works when your browser is idle. I don't see any good in wasting those seconds doing nothing.
