I prefer browsers good enough to show the url bar

also lol @ IE

[SirCumference]

I used to use Chrome, but I'm an Opera fan now. I keep Chrome as a secondary browser.

All of that data is really old. Every one of those browsers has released a newer version. Multiple newer versions in some cases.

[Ghostavo]

Because no new versions of all browsers were released in the past 2 years... oh wait.

[Klaustrophobia]

IE is just fine.  it is noticeably faster and generally more compatible than firefox for me.  i use firefox when i want to avoid ad spam and that's about it. 

i don't care how fast their browser is, google can f**k off.

[SirCumference]

IE 9 is actually pretty good. It still only scores a 95% on the Acid 3, but it's fast and has some nice features.

[Klaustrophobia]

has that been officially released or is it in beta still?  windows update hasn't picked it up yet.

[SirCumference]

IE 9 is official: www.microsoft.com/IE9

So you think your browser is better!?  THEMS IS FIGHTIN WORDS

Seriously though, despite the all-around praise for Chrome I still think I'mma stick with FF for now since I'm just so used to it and I love my add-ons and scriptblocker. :7  Plus there is a very obvious increase in speed with the newest version.  Having the tabs above the url-bar is still weird though, as is having the "open link in new tab" vs "open link in new window" positions in the right-click menu swapped.

hipsters use chrome trololololol

That graph is like seriously old. All the latest browsers should be plenty slick, including IE9 which is actually pretty good.

[Mongoose]

I'd give IE9 a try if they hadn't limited it to 7. Even FF3 was substantially faster than IE8, in my experience.

Yep. It tested Chrome version 3. Chrome is currently at version 11 (for release) and 12 (for developer builds).

[Fury]

13 actually, which is what I use at home and work.

[SirCumference]

I'd give IE9 a try if they hadn't limited it to 7.

I'm pretty sure IE 9 will work in Vista. XP is no longer supported though.

[Mongoose]

Yeah, that still doesn't help me.

[karajorma]

Old. I'm already on Firefox 4 which is supposedly much faster than 3.5

Not to mention buggy as hell too, Damn thing crashed so much I even stopped using it at work where it is our company's browser of choice.

I haven't had firefox crash once since 4

[Flipside]

I use IE for Windows Update and that's about it. Mostly I stick to Firefox, it might not be the fastest, but the day my life depends on a page loading 2ms faster will be a strange day indeed.
