I prefer Firefox. FF2 is slower than Opera but FF3 (currently in beta, but stable) is faster than Opera which eliminates Opera's main advantage over Firefox. Everything else Opera has you can get in Firefox with extensions, including speed dial. I will admit that Opera has more features included, but Firefox has so much more potential through the use of extensions.
Extensions I use are:
Adblock Plus (No more ads)
ChatZilla (IRC Chat)
CustomizeGoogle (no more google text adds among other things)
Download Statusbar (Shows current downloads in bar at the bottom of the page)
DownloadHelper (Downloads embedded mp3s and movies from places like youtube)
DownThemAll (Let's me resume downloads, won't be necessary with FF3)
Fast Dial (Speed Dial for Firefox)
Google Toolbar (easy access to google account)
Locationbar2 (improved functionality in the URL bar)
McAfee Siteadvisor (Warns me about bad sites)
PDF Download (Asks me what to do when opening a PDF, download, view in firefox, or open with external reader)
Stop-or-Reload Button (Combines stop and reload into one button)
URL Link (open text links with the right click menu)
NoScript (better security, also makes flash stuff not load until I click it)
UDToolbar & UD Centered Map (extensions for an online game I play)
