Yes, SliTaz did use to use Firefox as its default browser. But Firefox is
huge and bloated, and SliTaz keeps its live-CD iso under 30 mb ... and Midori
is very small, lightweight, and fast, so it fits the bill.

Unfortunately, Midori also still has a few serious bugs. But its development
has been happening very fast, and it is now the browser i use most of the
time in SliTaz (which is my favorite Linux distro, except for the really old
machines on which i use BasicLinux).
