Chrome v/s FF v/s Opera v/s IE8

^^ I realized that after I posted the thread This browser is awesome ....

[edit] I found a couple of pages that I go will not show right. All it shows is white backgounds with blue text. It is almost like the css isn't rendering properly [/edit]

Chrome is generally my browser of choice.

I do have some issues with certain pages, mostly some javascript and things that don't function correctly - but this is mostly because I'm using the nightly builds (currently v2.0.160.0) and not the general release build.

There are a couple nagging issues I have with it - unlike Saz, I actually don't like the bookmark management. It's workable and gotten better since the initial release, but I still would like to see something a little more robust. I also don't like how it closes the whole app when you close the last tab.

While I miss some extentions that I've used in firefox (like the EXIF viewer plugin), none of them were critical to my browsing experience - it will be nice once the gears stuff gets rolling though to see what people can do to extend the browser.

now, if only they would release a stable macOS and *nix version..

edit:
Incidentally, for those that want to live a little more on the edge and work on the 2.0 pre-beta as well, instructions for moving to the development channel builds are here.
Release notes for changes in the 2.0 side are here

I'm sticking with FF at the moment mainly for the extensions. I have Chrome installed and it's something of a backup browser for now. It's promising but I have too much on FF to do a complete move.
