    Well i just gave Chrome a test drive... and i'll say its certainly alot faster than fire fox or IE.

    But It still doesn't have the nice Addins that i use that firefox made a name for itself with.

    So basically... speed isnt everything. But i'll keep it around for speed browsing i guess

    i don't notice anything in speed but the usage is great although i dislike the ui very much. so i'll probably stick to FF for now.
