Yep, since I've gotten themes and gotten the color scheme of Chrome to work better with my overall computer aesthetic, Chrome seems to be the way to go.

I use Chrome exclusively now. I can't stand firefox. It doesn't work for half of the stuff I do. Google Chrome owns all.

I actually just abandoned Chrome. I installed the new version of Firefox and it's like 3 or 4 times faster. It's like all the funding for Chrome went into making it look better and sacrificed speed for it. No joke.

Weird. Cause I switched to after downloading Firefox 3.6. Chrome feels faster and that's how it seems to pan out in the benchmarks.

yeh, something seems wrong with that. Every windows machine I've ever installed Chrome on (2-3 dozen) has run significantly faster than any other browser (IE, Firefox, etc).

I adore Chrome. Any time I'm forced to use a different browser for one reason or another, I get extremely frustrated.

I use Chrome and Safari on my mac. I don't prefer one over the other. I have never liked Firefox on my Mac for some reason. I use Firefox at work though.
