My impression is that unless you're someone with an opinion, who's decided that you want to stick with your browser of choice, you end up getting Chrome installed and defaulted by accident.

Sounds Plausible. I was astonished recently to find that I couldn't buy tickets online because someone had decided to sell them via Google Checkout which you can't use unless you open a Google account!

It's not exactly fast when starting up because it refreshes them all from some mixture of cache and refreshed pages, but it's coping surprisingly well.Behold the warranty -- the bold print giveth and the fine print taketh away.Comment
