Trying it out now. Looks like a cross between internet explorer (bad) and chrome.

I will wait for the proper release.
Been using Chrome more recently, as Firefox just seemed to be causing too many issues on my PC all of a sudden.

Yeah, firefox has really gone down hill. I haven't made the switch to Chrome yet but I'm considering it.

Chrome is becoming the "not internet explorer" browser of choice. I'm still not using chrome because I don't trust it.

I've tried it and so far I don't find it as intuitive to navigate as other browsers. At the same time I've only used it briefly now and then.

Have you tried Iron?

It's essentially Chrome without all the Google spying.

I've been alternating between Opera and Chrome. Never had a need for any other browser.

Chrome has really started to piss me off recently, with it taking forever to load pages, and boxes popping up saying its having problems and would I like to wait or cancel etc.
It also keeps freezing for short periods where I cant click on anything.

I've given in and downloaded this new FF beta, and to be honest, I really cant see that much different to the previous FF. But at least its working better again.
