Chrome vrs Firefox - Anyone?

After jumping ship to Chrome I can see little reason to return to FF and relish the speed of Chrome.

PooPoo away, DJ. I be out out of touch and all ears for a FF/Chrome comparative.

I limit my Google exposure. That's not to say any other product or search provider is any more trustworthy but I stay away as much as I can from a known offender.

Known offender being the operative. IP addresses are noted from the most innocuous of sites.

FF must certainly adhere to any lawful directives and isn't that what G has been condemned of?

'Offenders' are everywhere. Most are unknown.

Chrome or Firefox....BOTH (for now)!

I've been using Chrome more and more since it is still much faster than Firefox, Safari, and IE. I like many of the windowing features as well.

BUT

I use more Firefox plugins than I can count. Many make my life exponentially easier. Chrome doesn't compete there (yet).

Mackie, I can not disagree with anything you've posted. I've picked my poison and like Cbedo I'm hooked on add ins, so, jumping ship would require a withdrawl.

Firefox 3.5 has been released. Very fast. Some helpful tips can be found here (http://www.tweakguides.com/Firefox_3.html), especially doing an uninstall of previous versions.
