Chrome makes Safari take a back seat

I use all four. Which one I use at a particular time depends on what I'm doing. While Safari is often reasonably fast, I wouldn't trust it to transmit confidential information.

From fastest to slowest, it's:
1. Chrome
2. Safari
3. Firefox
4. Internet Explorer

Sometimes, Chrome is a lot faster than Safari. Most of the time, however, Chrome barely edges out Safari. Firefox seems like the average of one of the four randomly chosen. IE is light years behind when it comes to speed. M$ really pisses me off that they would not take personal accountability for their formatting glitch in IE 8.

One little annoyance with Chrome: It doesn't seem to remember scroll position in the history. Maybe they'll address that in 1.0

I am using the Chrome Beta on my MBP as the default browser. So far it is working like a champ.

Chrome for both my PC and my Mac. Im using Chrome for Mac since developers release and im really happy with it, except the fact that is ugly.
It's lighting fast and really speedy.

I like safari but i hate that there isn't an option to open my previous tabs when i open it, also safari, from my perspective should have been a lot faster to load on the Mac, but it doesn't.

I would definitely go on Safari and stick with it if they try harder and make it faster on loading pages and also on start up.
Last but not least, i hate the fact that they have dropped the best feature for me Safari had, the loading bar on adress bar, can someone explain to me why they did that?

Oh well, Chrome does the job for me.

I use firefox for development work (having firebug is just the most awesome add-on for a browser - don't know how I built sites without it!!), but for just enjoyment of a browser, I use Chrome.

I've never been much of a safari person - never liked the look of it - seeing as it doesn't ship with Windows PCs, I've only installed it for testing browsers.

Obviously IE is a complete dog, but again I have that as I need to test on it, and it came with the machine.

Chrome really is a lovely browser tho - a lit cleaner and simpler UI, without losing any of the features other browsers have with their extensive toolbars and menus.

I've not had any problems with running any of these browsers on my PC.

I started with Safari, turned to Camino and recently switched to Firefox when I updated to a new MAC, all in my quest for the perfect browser!

But I've moved once more to Chrome, the thing loaded up as soon as I clicked it. That was enough to transfer my Bookmarks. It is faster at rendering than Safari and for the first time ever I'm running intensive flash videos and games at smooth usable frame rates. It's brilliant, no hiccups or freezes.

Also just for fun, I closed the browser with a couple Tabs on, the launched it again and it was almost as if I only blinked... no load up at all, just the web, right there, the way I left it.

Chrome is the fastest browser out there, and until the other players update theirs, I'm sticking with this one!

This is ultimately a win for everyone. More WebKit == more compatible sites.

I would use Chrome but they lack Netflix support for instant streaming. Safari has caught up with Firefox as far as I'm concerned so I'll stick with Safari until Chrome gets my instant streaming Netflix support.

I was poking around on the Chrome website and had Chrome when it was still hidden away in the developer stage. Still find Safari to have faster startup and general faster speed.

I'd be curious to see how the privacy technology in chrome compares to Safari though...

When running Windows or Linux, it's firefox all the way. But I have had a lot of issues with Firefox running on my mac. It takes forever to load. I do use it occasionally when I need an add-on. I used to use Camino a fair bit. But now I primarily use Chrome, because it is so fast and sleek.

I've just never really liked safari.
