I still haven't had any problems with Chrome, but then again I don't use ghetto hardware.

Firefox is my nicca till the end...but I don't even bother clicking on the outside link thread due to not wanting to deal with the page taking forever to load.

Chrome isn't bad, I just rarely touch it. I have noticed it seems to stream live video better than Firefox though (ESPN for instance; not a lot of buffering, clean picture at all times).

I use IE at work because I like being able to turn off images so I can surf slightly less conspicuously. Certain sites will actually crash it (like TPM) and oddly enough Outlook.com doesn't work right. I also have chrome but sometimes get a bit sketched out that it's linked to my account I use at home. (I know it doesn't have to be but I keep feeling like I'm playing with fire whenever I log into google on chrome)

Can you turn off images in FF? I'd use it if so.

If you have a machine where 2 gigs of RAM is a significant chunk, you need to upgrade.

I was using Chrome as my main for a while, but it now performs like poo when trying to handle mutiple gifs.

I switched back to Waterfox and no problems so far.

Firefox always performed decent enough. I just remember it being a resource/memory hog. I've been using opera for the last few weeks and while there are occasional weird hiccups, its mostly been fine.

Chrome DevTools have put me firmly in that camp.
