No, I didn't turn into ENVY.

Chrome web browser. I've had so many problems with firefox the last few months, and have probably lost dozens of productive hours because of it. It crashes on me so much, I tend to have a large number of tabs open at a time, usually 15-20. Well I have stopped using firefox alltogether and use only Chrome and Safari now. Both are running MUCH better on a daily bases. Any others frustrated with firefox recently?

I use Chrome as my main browser on my Dell laptop (with FireFox as the backup) and am also running the beta version of Chrome on my Macs. Great browser. Google released an update last week that changed the behavior of the main startup page and it's a cool upgrade. I do have one issue which is that since the update, Chrome doesn't play quite as well on some sites but that'll probably get fixed shortly.

Cool

I'm OK with Firefox but there are websites that don't like Mozilla's sandbox ... I've thought about Chrome ... but change isn't something I handle well.

BTW ... the post title really had be worried I was expecting to see your car fitted with 22" BLING

I tried chrome when it came out, I hated it for some reason. It looked to minimal for my tastes.

Right now: Firefox 3.5.3 + IE Tab + NoScript + AFOM (helps contain memory leaks).
