I really do WANT to use Chrome, but there are so many Firefox extensions I just can't do without. One step closer though.

  They'll never have Tree Style Tabs I imagine, so I'm stuck forever with Firefox for that extension. Not that I mind Firefox, but Chrome gets to do a reboot and start again without carrying legacy support/etc with it. Early versions of Firefox felt "lighter" than IE to me for that reason.

    Remember when Firefox was the lightweight web browser? Of course it was called Phoenix back then, and later Firebird. It was refreshing.

      Firefox was never a lightweight browser. It was fairly minimalist, especially compared with what came before it, but those things were just switched off or hidden, not removed, because that would have been a lot more work. It's probably only got more "lightweight" with time as they've had more opportunity and funding to optimise and actually remove things they don't use.
