I'd go with Chrome if it would support Firefox addons, but since it doesn't I'll stick with Mozilla thank you.
i like my firefox with its full aero. it looks great, imo.
I've always used IE. Ever since 95, its been the browser I use but that far back I hadent known what else was out there, if there was anything else at the time. I used FF for a short time some years ago and didn't really like it to much, but I can't really remark on how it works now so I'm neutral ATM on FF. I used GC when it first came out in beta and then for some time when it got out of beta and it did have image loading problems and flash loading problems I couldent fix. Some of the stuff mentioned about FF and GC like private browsing and seprate processes for each tab are also used by IE8, what I'm useing right now. Also a question, does FF or GC have full tab recovery? A side note: I'm going to get both FF and GC, just to see if theres anything new since the last time I used them. Any suggestions whats good in plugins/addons/extra features?

I like Firefox best because I have all my wonderful Addons that I need to make browsing faster and more convenient for [b]me[/b]. Now I know someone else may feel different, but this is my personal opinion.
[QUOTE=scout-on-a-train;17615410]Chrome is great, but I start missing my addons after a while of using it. And with a few addons you can get pretty good screenspace on FF too.

I think chrome is best. Firefox is extremely slow on this computer.
All the people saying Firefox doesn't have as much screen real estate as Chrome: Press F11

Firefox wins in terms of addons and themes. Chrome wins in speed. Thing I hate about chrome is that it gives me tons of error messages. TONS.

lolwat. The version you get from Chrome's site is 3, not 2. Also if you have the latest stable version you shouldn't get errors.
I love my addons too much. Chrome is good, but Firefox is more suited to what everyone needs (besides speed)

Firefox kept crashing for me, so I switched to chrome
Updating with Chrome is so easy. Wrench -> About Google Chrome I love it!

my chrome and chromium are running really cumbersome lately and i don't know why
Faster my ass cheeks. God damn this thing is slow. Plus FF has my FP script. Chrome loses.

Google need to make add-on integration on-par with Firefox. Of course, the first thing people will do is make a proper Chrome AdBlock and get rid of all of Googles ads. ...Wait a minute. :tinfoil:
