    Anyone use GC and do you like it? Do you think it is better than IE8?

    I don't use either, I use Mozilla Firefox, I like it alot! It allows me to do a lot of customization.

    I use it about 20% of the time. My primary browser is still FireFox. Chrome is very fast and better at showing Flash. I've noticed FireFox is becoming a bit resource intensive and crashes more than usual. However, its extensions feature is still miles ahead of Chrome's.

    My verdict: give Chrome a try.

    I used Google chrome before but it took up a lot of space so deleted it. I will forever stay loyal to my Firefox

    Usually a firefox user, however I stumbled across a new pone called rockmelt the other week. Pretty good, it's basically Google Chrome, but with added social media power. Pm me if you'd like an invite :-D

    Tried GC before but didn't really like it .... you are right old habits are really hard to break. Now using IE9 just like a combination of all 3 - IE8, GC & Firefox and is loving it.
