When I'm on Windows I like to use Chrome. I find it really fast at loading (rendering) pages. It's also less of a resource hog, a friend who has a rather slow PC finds it makes her life much easier!

Using chrome alot now due to i.e being slow and taking an age to load pages :) doesn't really affect me tho to be honest i used to use Firefox to browse now i am pretty happy with chrome :D

Re: Google Chrome
 
Just one question before I give it a go . are there any websites that it has any probs with?

I ask because I ve read before on here that some of these hit probs when browsing ?

Downloaded Chrome this morning. I originally used Firefox and did do for quite a few years, however it started to run very slow and took an age to start up towards the end. I tried many things to put it right but all to no avail. I then moved on to Opera which I'm currently using. I find it pretty good and an improvement on Firefox.

Chrome does seem relatively quick but not much faster than Opera. I will continue to use it for a while and see if it has its advantages over Opera.

I'm happy to stick with Opera....

It sort of works how mu brain does which in truth is what you should look for in any piece of software.
