I tried Chrome a couple of times and didn't like it.  I've been using Safari lately and I'm liking it so far.

Using chrome as we speak!  I don't use a lot of add-ons, so I like the speed.  I think it's also more stable than FF, which constantly crashes on my machine.  The only annoying thing is that some sites aren't optimized for Chrome, so sometimes I have to IEtab the page to input information.

Been using Chrome for a good while and that's my only complaint too.

My issue is tab management.  Chrome's tab system is AWFUL.

Started using Chrome in the beta and haven't changed.  The faster speed is what makes all the difference for me.  It definitely feels more spartan than FF.  I don't care for add-ons so it works well for me.

There are a couple of sites I have to use for work that don't play well with Chrome.  I have to go with IE or FF and after having used Chrome for so long I really don't like the others.

Still chunking along with FF.  Speed difference doesn't make up for the CLUNKY tab management.

Open 30 tabs in chrome.  Now, try to select one of them.  Which one are you selecting?  How do you close a tab you are done with?  Really messes with the way I read Fark.

Why can't I put a close tabs button that will close the active tab without being ON that tab?  Why does the close tab button disappear when I have a lot of tabs open?

Why can't I scroll through my open tabs?

when I open a new tab, why does it show all my bookmarks as thumbs, and not let me change that behavior?  (without an extension)

Add to that:  why can't I have control over my cache size and some of my history?

The tab candy, or whatever they decided to call it, looks pretty cool.  It's supposed to be included in the next beta of FF4.  http://mashable.com/2010/07/23/tab-candy-firefox/
