My order of preference of browsers:
Mac:
1. Chrome
2. Safari
3. FirefoxPC:
1. Chrome
2. Firefox
3. IE9I've been ok with Safari on a Mac.. recently though Chrome is ace but it does have it's issues.. but it's the best browser on OSX hands down..
Firefox on OSX is a huge pile of turd.
On Windows though.. Chrome is absolutely insane.. It's super super fast and runs so smooth.. Firefox is ok too but still feels significantly heavier..
With all the hype surrounding IE9 and all the positive opinions I find it to be a pile of shit. The UI is awful, the speed is nowhere near Chrome and it still doesn't render pages correctly (and I test same page in Chrome, Safari and Firefox and they all show it ok, I'm talking CSS3/Webkit transforms).
- i know it's faster than ff, but it's the little things that fail... you tried swfaddress on the latest safari boz? buggeredkingsteven

i have an old version of it on my pc , 3.0 i think, new versions of safari just sucks. The other one that is starting to suck is Chrome.

I never have any problems with Safari. The only thing I really don't like is that it doesn't append current date to downloaded files and this often buries them somewhere in the downloads folder.

OK, on Chrome for the first time right now. Only ever used it to check browser compatibility issues.
Stupid question: can't I get a new tab page to load the exact page I want it to? For example, on this laptop I'm on right now, I want a new tab to open to google.com.
Basically a new tab opens homepage option.

I got rid of flash on safari.
thats what was causing the issue
I also installed ghostery to remove all these tracking pixels these ad networks use.... lots of sites use multiple ad networks to make $$ so they slow things down.
but flash by FAR is the worst culprit.
Chrome isn't great either (no sidebar)... and it sucks memory like a mofo.

Safari is sooooo good compared to Chrome now.
