I've been using Chrome more and more lately. Guess it's time to accelerate the transition and change my default browser.

Thanks

Firefox rocks.!

Switching to firefox now.
Problem is my add ons did not travel with the switch.
Chrome has too many load issues with PDFs on my pc for me so I am going with firefox.

This threat looks real.

Maybe I will try a reload , but it came out so fast that some programs are bound to have issues.

I have noticed many ,such as Remember the Milk task program does not work, or my e-mail compressed file not sending.

Still if you guys think it is ok, it could be my early version.

FireFox ,I just loaded and is faster from what I can tell,but I need a way to load my add ons.

No spellcheck.

I can't speak for add-ons. I don't use any. They could very well have problems with Chrome.

Where?
I am used to seeing it on my toolbar.
Had to reload Google tool bar also and lost the smart history or whatever it is called.

It is a pain, but I have time today.

It's automatic. Try misspelling a word in a post reply and it will underline it in red.

Right click for suggested spellings.

Yeah just saw that.
Not as good though.
I mispelled thru and it suggested (threw) rather than (through).

Try it.

Ok
After playing with it I am liking it.
Fast
I will most likely switch to it, and wonder how much ram performance I will save if I delete IE.
I tried it 3 years ago and it was acting buggy,so I never went back.
Also a client this morning said it works great with Mac.
