IE - For downloading Chrome/Firefox and tax returns :) Opera/Firefox/Chrome Seems to be a perpetual battle. Depends on the user. -- With Regards, Phares Kariuki | T: +254 734 810 802 | E: pkariuki@gmail.com | Twitter: kaboro | Skype: kariukiphares | B: http://www.kaboro.com/ |

Chrome for me. Interface is very unintrusive, its fast, sandboxing and detachable tabs that all the other browsers are trying to emulate . .. and I can run 11 tabs and not tax my rickety bucket of a CPU Regards, Mark Mwangi http://mwangy.posterous.com My profiles: [image: Facebook] <http:www.facebook.com/Eng.Kangy> [image: Twitter] <www.twitter.com/Mwangy> Signature powered by <http://www.wisestamp.com/email-install?utm_source=extension&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=footer> WiseStamp<http://www.wisestamp.com/email-install?utm_source=extension&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=footer> On Wed, Nov 17, 2010 at 3:41 PM, Phares Kariuki <pkariuki@gmail.com> wrote:

Chrome is damn fast..especially noted if you're a developer/user of large web apps e.g. those built on ExtJS framework. I always see striking differences in loading and rendering speed btwn Firefox and Chrome. These Google guys know their stuff for sure.

it all depends on the extensions you use. but would highly recommend Chrome on Linux and FF on Windoze. On Wed, Nov 17, 2010 at 10:51 PM, Haggai Nyang <haggai.nyang@gmail.com>wrote:

I prefer firefox for web development. The add ons are in my opinion essential

Its the users who always think of which is better, since all the time the developers strive to make a better product from the one they had initially, i.e its a battle of versions for developers, while users fight each other with the brands ./Ok3ch On Thu, Nov 18, 2010 at 9:11 AM, Ouya Obunga <ouya.bill@gmail.com> wrote:

Okechukwu put it in the right terms. Users go for brands, developers look at add-ons and plugins the rest are somewhere between here and there I go for FF reason being plugins & addons, follows standards set out for browsers [which IE grossly takes for granted], has formats for both windows and linux platforms and is not memory hungry.

If I want a browser to fire up the quickest, its opera, slowest is FF. Working and changing between one app and another to see how am fairing its chrome, same goes for mails. To check whats screwing my ajax, jquery and javascript .... i use FF. When I want to see how bad my app can look, i fire up IE. *_______________________________________________________________ its ok child, He's heard you * On Thu, Nov 18, 2010 at 3:43 AM, Nd'wex Common <flexycat@gmail.com> wrote:
