I find Chrome indispensable on OS X. Whenever I begin to wonder if my Macbook Air has fans or not, I start up Chrome and whoosh, it’s like a Hawker Harrier performing a vertical take-off. At one point I was doing a lot of coding in a coffee shop. When testing my work in Safari, I could sit down and run on my Mac’s batteries until I got tired of the coffee shop and headed home. With Chrome, I had to plug in immediately. I believe people who tell me Chrome has better bling and is faster, but Safari is fast enough for my purposes, and battery life is a far bigger factor for my browser choice than raw performance.
