I'm thinking about trying it out. I've never really cared for anything but IE because I don't have any real use for all the addons and such.

 

 

 

Edit:

 

 

 

Installed Google Chrome and I like it so far. Load times are quick and I like how there's basically nothing but basics (even less than IE).

I absolutely love it. If it had the adblock feature I'd definitely use it instead of Firefox, since the new Firefox is pretty damn annoying.

 

 

 

It's simple, clean and really damn fast. I like the way tabs work, the "most visited websites" feature and how you can load additional websites upon browser startup. Can't wait for the official release, and the surge of extensions that will come with it.

 

 

 

The ads haven't bothered me too much so right now Chrome is my default browser. :P

Hmm, sounds good for conserving memory. Too bad I can't use it as I have Ubuntu and Windows 98 (dual boot). :(

If you're using anything other than Opera, then your browser sucks. Fact.

 

 

 

Fail, you mean Firefox.

 

Lynx will always rein supreme over all anyways so the Opera V FireFox debate is pointless.

Meh, I'm happy with Firefox 3 for now. If Chrome comes out for XP soon, I might try it.

 

 

 

Oops, worded that wrong. :oops:

 

 

 

I knew it was coming out for XP. I didn't know it was out for XP already though...In that case, I might give it a go sometime.

if you've got firefox set up how you want it, you might not like chrome cause of the lack of addons and stuff, if you approach chrome with an open mind, you will probably like it. coming from IE to chrome was good for me, and i didn't like firefox the way my mom had it set up when i visited her. never tried opera, i don't need all sorts of fancy stuff in my browser so chrome is perfect, except for the weird lag i get every once in a while, especially with photobucket.

:wall: Chrome has always worked on XP, the first installer that came out was for all modern Windows versions.

 

 

 

I have no idea where people got that weird idea from. Seriously.

Obviously it doesn't have a spell check because that article had a million mis-spellings.

 

 

 

 

 

It is pretty cool. But note to self. Mozzila eats Internet Explorer, has Safari for seconds, now Google Chrome for desert.

 

 

 

That may be true under xp, but for a Vista user, Explore kicks Mozilla 6 ways from sunday. And since chrome is google, I would expect it to kick any other browser into sometime next week.

Oh that's right. I forgot how much I enjoyed having to download everything to customize my browser, instead of it all already being there.

Actually, Internet Explorer is the most insecure browser. After that, Netscape, and then Firefox and then Opera. :P Don't forget that Mozilla is more customizable.

i'm going to just speak up and ask if i'm the only one who doesn't give a damn about customizing his browser? all i want is a simplistic browser, i don't need all that extra crap in it. that's why i used IE up until chrome's releases, and that's why i've been using chrome ever since.

You don't have to customize firefox. Then you'll have a simplistic browser? At least as simplistic as IE.

 

 

 

Been using chrome ever since the release for everything except RS. Very very nice. Multithreaded processes make crashes barely existent and extremely fast.

 

 

 

Patiently waiting for addons for Chrome :twss:

 

 

 

Btw, Chrome and FF aren't in a competition. Hell, google gives funding to mozilla. They are more or less working together.

I really, really hope you weren't using IE 6.

 

And as was stated before, using Firefox does not mean you have to customize it.
