      On a serious note, I've noticed no resource or crash issues with Chrome regardless of the number of tabs.
      In multiple windows?

      Well this was like a year or two ago. It was mostly flash heavy sites, if one tab crashed then all tabs would crash and have to refresh all of them zzz.
      Back then. opening the same exact sites and tabs etc in chrome would consume more ram than opening it in firefox.

              nah HTML5 is fine, if it were On Rails, then yeah, that'd be HipsterML.

                FF for me, just so i can use pimpzilla

                only use IE on a site that wont work properly with ff otherwise it is banished to somewhere in the start menu.

                    I use Chrome because I was under the impression that it renders (if thats the right term?) pages, faster than Firefox.

                      Because you need a browser to use the world wide web, and Firefox is a browser.

                        Chrome once had a huge lead, but Safari and Firefox as pretty close now, if not just as good.

                        But I find Chrome as an application still operates far snappier than the others, too.

                          I use Chrome at work and FF at home, and whenever my work PC is being sluggish, Chrome is almost always the culprit. I'm a tab whore and I agree, FF seems to handle many tabs better than Chrome.

                            Well at work I am forced to use IE / FF but at home I use opera and chrome.
                            Why - just cause it is a browser. It works for me.
