A lot of people think "Oh well chrome is the best browser" and I agree
However, I wanna clarify something. People say its fast. And I feel like it is. The reason it seems faster is because it uses more of your computers memory to make it run faster. It loads webpages and images as fast as your internet connection, not waiting for RAM to back it up.
The webpages on chrome also look smoother. A lot smoother when you scroll. The reason for this is that chrome will pull from your computers video adapter in order to smooth out the page, again, using more resources.
So in the end, for a slower computer, firefox is probably a better bet. Chrome is better for people with decent PCs and up.
Another thing I wanna say that why I prefer chrome over firefox is the fact that most of Chromes web coding is pulled from IE. And since most people have IE, or used to a few years ago, most webpages are coded in IE. You don't need to worry about tags not working
There are tags in Firefox that do not work in IE and vice versa. I.E. the <image title="'> tag only works in firefox, and IE has a different tag for it all together.
Chrome runs off of the same tags that IE uses, thus allowing webpages to load correctly
That's how I feel about it

I've got a badass gaming laptop, but only 8GB of RAM... whenever I use Chrome and try to play something like Crysis 3, I almost always run out of RAM. Thanks for explaining why my computer has like, 30 instances of chrome.exe running at about 120mb a piece.
Most of my sites were just aligned text with pictures though. We didn't learn a lot there, just how to format a site and put in stuff. The hardest stuff we learned was basic java code (like text boxes you can put info into) and CSS.
Maybe that's all there is to it, though...

Erm maybe you're right, but my computer is shit and it is soooo much slower using IE than chrome. Going on the internet is actually bearable using chrome compared to long ass waiting times on IE, so tbh I don't believe what you are saying based on personal experience.

Actually, the main reason that Chrome is so much faster is that they didn't load it down with all that bloat crap the others did. They made it more customizable...if you don't want a flash player embedded, you don't have to have one. If you don't want a java platform...don't add it. Customization is the key!
