Have Both of MSIE 8 beta 2 and Chrome beta, and you all have to remember that they are both not “bug-free” and have issues with Java, ActiveX, Flash functions and popups….

My idea – don’t change your browser until all is working 100%

Google Chrome is good for sure because it is fast. But it has lots of downs under the hood and not as great as IE 8 Beta 2 or Firefox.

Think about it and then decide. For now, I’ll use FF and IE8.

My site (with quite a bit of javascript) displayed trouble free ‘out of the box’ for I.E.8. Still can’t make it display correctly in Chrome.

You are lying. Microsoft Internet Explorer 8 Beta 2 is fast like a rabbit, lightweight like a feather, and cleaver like no one of you.
Surrender to Microsoft Empire.
Long life to Windows!
Death to Linux (and Cuba)!

The Chrome install was very easy. I noticed how much fast GMail was immediately, at least 50% that FF3 (although I really love FF3!). Picasa was also faster, but this could be due to the Picasa 3 upgrade. Google Maps worked fine, with zooming and panning being noticeably faster, but not like GMail. Probably the most noticeable difference was in the predictive browser box – extremely fast and especially relevant. I haven’t tried IE8, but the footprint is four times larger than Chrome, and I don’t have the latest and greatest processor to burn through all that code.

I have installed Google Chrome and found browsing fun with its simple Gtalk like Simplicity. I’ll stick with FireFox for now until Chrome gets some useful plugins to enhance it.
