Chrome vs. Firefox
I made a whole-hearted attempt to integrate Chrome into my online life, used it exclusively for over a week. I decided to return to Firefox because Chrome couldn't handle LexisNexis and would occasionally balk at Hulu. I really liked the right-click > open in new tab as the top option, the google search from the address bar, and my most visited sites on the page that opens when you choose new tab. I like the concept of "incognito" browsing, but I didn't use it.
Have you tried Chrome?

Message from above
I keep going back to Firefox because it is what I know, it continues to serve me well and there haven't been any issues using it on either the netbook or the laptop.
I have also used, SRWareIron but haven't used it enough to form an opinion. Firefox just keeps drawing me back.
I never use IE.
IE to Opera (a decade back)
Opera to Firefox back and forth(around 7 years back)
Firefox/Opera to Chrome (when Chrome hit the net)
Chrome to Firefox (when there was just too many background shady processes and updates going on in Chrome, a month into Chrome)
Firefox to SRWareIron (when Firefox was UNBEARABLY slow and took a whole 4 minutes to boot - about a year or two back)
SRWareIron to SRWareIron portable (because I don't relish installing programs and believe everything should work out of the box without messing the registry and requiring admin rights on any computer)
SRWare Iron to Chrome Portable :::link::: (Current, a month into usage and liking it till now )
And no, I don't foresee going back ever to
a) Firefox
b) Any browser that requires installation/admin rights. Portable software is the way to go.
