I'm using I.E 7 still but I know some people who keep raving about how good Firefox is. I was thinking of upgrading to ie8 now but i'm having second thoughts. What browser do people here use?
Also I like Chrome because it has process splitting which makes it faster and more stable. Firefox has announced they will do this in future versions beyond 3.5 probably. This also will mean that crashing a single tab whilst browsing, will not bring down the whole browser process.
On my laptop I use Firefox 3. Mainly because I haven't gotten around to installing Google Chrome on it. My desktop has Chrome on it which I find is fast and well behaved.
Firefox 3 is fast once it's started up through the first use of the day. Chrome is faster to startup first thing and seems "lighter" on system resources.
I.E is the worst piece of crap browser ever conceived. It's compliance with web standards up till IE8 has been shameful. I'm yet to install it though... Microsoft have a long way to go before they earn back any faith I had in Internet Explorer.
