    Hope its pop-up blocker works, thats my only gripe with Chrome.

    Certainly the past few have required relaunching here. Still, no pop-up notification that a relaunch is necessary, which is at least an improvement on Firefox.

    I'll be sticking with Firefox as my primary with Opera as my secondary. On a side note, Opera 12 is shaping up very nicely. It just might replace Firefox as my primary web browser.

    I used to surfing with Firefox. I switched to Chrome because it's much faster when I'm browsing with multiple tabs!

    Would use Firefox, but can't find a working extension that scrobbles what I'm listening to on Pandora to Last.fm

    My best friend uses Firefox on his netbook. Why? Apparently Opera and Chrome cannot handle all his tabs on the limited hardware that he is on. Surprised me too.
