For some reason I thought this was going to be a parody thread. :-/

Chrome is like a new girlfriend/boyfriend. Fresh, new, invigorating....Gets you to that magical point quicker...

But Firefox, your ex, is more familiar. He/she/hermaphrodite may be less exciting and slow, but he/she/hermaphrodite knows you. He/she/hermaphrodite is more sensual.

Best description I've read yet. :p

On my computer, Firefox takes a little while to start up, whereas Chrome starts nearly instantly. Also, the pages seem to load faster with Chrome. I have had Chrome glitch up on me before, and have had it crash a couple/few times.

If your computer is slow i'd recommend Chrome but if your computer if fast enough that you can't tell the difference in speed between the browsers, i'd recommend Firefox.

Also, Chrome is missing some features which you could consider important, such as print preview. Also, you can't ctrl-click to select multiple pieces of text to copy, but I suppose there might be another way to do it.

Lemme guess, IE is the uncle who you shared a few sexual things with under the shower until you realized he was 40 years older than you?

So I installed Chrome. It's... different. First thing I noticed right away after importing all my bookmarks and passwords from Firefox was that even though Firefox lets me use more than one tab for the home page (RWP, Gmail, and Serebii.net open at once), Chrome doesn't do that.

I'll keep trying this, though...

It does let you, actually. Just go to the options.

I found that you can for initial start-up, but I couldn't get it for the actual Home Page button to work...

No, IE is just the retarded cousin that you have to tolerate.

Stick with Safari.

It's good on the Macs. It's slower on Nazisoft Vindows OS.

I love excellent Windows, the best. Macs are terrible.

I agree. :)

It took me awhile to figure everything out at first, but most, if not all the important things from Firefox are in Chrome too. I recommend playing around with the page and wrench icons in the upper right-hand corner of the screen.

There are a few minor things that I don't like, but I think the pros largely outweigh the cons in Chrome.

This is why you have all 4 browsers installed and choose one for what you plan on doing :V

I have Flock, IE, Chrome, Safara and FireFox all installed, but I only tend to use FireFox or Flock sometimes...

Try Flock, dude. You might like it.

But then firefox is just as slow on my PC so I suppose they just vary for some strange and inconsolable reason.

Did you ever try Flock? It's made by Mozilla as well, but faster than Firefox.

We're stuck with Internet Explorer at college. It's absolutely awful and it drives me up the wall.

DON'T GET ME STARTED ON UPDATES, ALL RIGHT?!

All they ever did was slow down my poor PC, and for all I know, M$'s downloading viruses onto it so I'll have to get a new one.
