use chrome in bootcamp and max os x. is as (in)stable as firefox but manages tabbrowsing way better. also the autosuggestion for web addresses are pretty convenient. safari is not my kind except for overview of the most often visited pages. but hey, only one can win and that's chrome!

i liove both Safari and Firefox, but when i download files firefox is faster, but when i read news and current events I use Safari, because I can enlarge the font the very tiny news if i use firefox i have to use a magnifying gless just to read the article, zooming in doesnt work for me but on Safari, i just click the small A and large A just for a desired font size ideal for my reeading,,,

I use google chrome on my pc, and I will use safari on my macbook as soon as I get it.
I really like that you can change the design on google chrome and it has some really nice tools that I havent seen on other web browsers.

I think safari is nice and simple, also very quick. It suits my needs. I just don't like firefox interface. I still have it on my mac though. :)

When I switched to the Mac, I used Firefox right away. But Safari had better performance, so I switched to Safari and kept using it ever since :)

I love Opera for Windows, but for some reason I don't think the Mac version is that great. I wish they would incorporate the trackpad gestures.

I also have trouble loading many web pages including mac-forums on Opera.

For now I am going to use Safari.

I am still waiting for Opera to come along with a better version as 10.10 is still not up to my standards.

Just got the public beta release of Chrome for OS X, and it is amazing! It is noticeably so much quicker. Let's see how it goes for a few weeks first though...

I used Safari exclusively until about SL. It just had too many changes that didn't fit with my web browsing style. I never cared much for Firefox until recently but am very happy with it. I use it on Mac and Windows OS. Not for profit is a big plus.
