    I wish he would of went into more detail about what makes it faster, instead of saying its just simply faster.

    I use Safari on my Mac except in the unlikely scenario of web browsing on my gaming PC, when I use Firefox. I'm sure Google Chrome is fine, but I've never even tried it. If I ever get back into doing more work with websites like I used to, I'm sure I'll at least have all the major browsers installed for every platform I have, but for now, I just don't need to.

    Yea thats what I ended up doing, then firefox has an addon where it adds buttons to the very right of the tab bar that allow you to open your current page in any browser you have installed, I got IE, chrome, opera, and safari installed. I only use them to see how my webpage views on them.

    believe it or not opera has been the one that require the least amount of work to get stuff to show up correctly. Just about anything I do opera requires no extra work. Like even the simple task of adding a favicon, all I had to do was upload the favicon to the root and opera show'd it, where other browser required extra code to get it to show up. IE has been the pickiest tho. the favicon shortcut name was "favicon" instead of "icon" and all other browser show'd it but IE, it needed it to be "icon"

    I have very little web building experience tho, this is all new to me.

    Chrome - worked faster than Fire Fox for me. Plus the screen is a lot fuller with Chrome.

    Chrome for sure. Firefox and Explorer run super slow for me.

    Most of the time Chrome, if I'm on the PC. Safari if I'm on the Mac. The Firefox on the Mac never opens a PDF, just a blank page.
