I agree.* The speed difference would be minimal and it wouldn't suffer from the bloat.* Even Waterfox has bloat.* Opera seems to have speediness but it lacks all the features I like. Great HTML5 support for Opera though. Youtube works like a dream on Opera.* But Waterfox is my workhorse. I want Chrome to make it.* I keep rooting for it and it's great at certain things, especially the land of add-ons.* I installed Chromium OS in a virtual machine once.* It was pretty neat.* But Chrome remains in the "not quite there yet". Then again, ALL browsers will remain "not quite there" 'til they ditch the HTML/Javascript duo and give us something better.* One describes flat pages.* The other is a useful if awkward scripting language that can manipulate elements nicely.** Very hack.* Amazing how much we depend on it.
