Yeah. I use IE and am not looking for an alternative. It works for me.

Really? I've never had that problem. All webpages in Chrome look great to me.

The only problem I have with Chrome is that Shockwave Player is unstable on it requiring occasional closing down and re-opening of Chrome as it slows to a crawl when Shockwave goes whacky.

Google is coming out with a new operating system also called Chrome. A computer is supposed to be able to come to full boot in about 7 seconds from the time you push the on button. It's designed for you to have everything in the cloud, no programs to purchase or download. I'm not sure how comfortable I am with that but it sounds like an interesting idea.

I do like most Google programs, don't know that I would use an OS, though. Too much commitment. I don't think that anyone has trashed IE here, I'm not sure why I'm not into FF, but something about it feels... uncomfortable to me. Like new underwear, I guess.

I've never used IE as my regular browser. I don't really know why. When I've used it a few times, it's been fine. I just went the Netscape-FireFox-Chrome route instead. I don't see any as being better than the other. It's like Coke vs. Pepsi. We all have different tastes and find what we like best.

I appreciate Google's way of doing things open-source. I think it encourages innovation.

Yes.

If you want the tab bar to not appear, you may go into the "tools" menu, then "options", then "tabs", then uncheck the "always show the tab bar" option, and restart FF.

Thank you.

You're welcome. I find the tabs really handy. Right now I have 11 opened.

Indeed they are when I want numerous tabs open. Otherwise, there's enough real estate gone at the top. Do you use the StumbleUpon Toolbar?

I don't use any add-on tool bars, except for the multi-row bookmark add-on, so I have two rows of bookmark folders.

I used the Yahoo toolbar for a while but found mostly it was just clutter.
