[QUOTE="Clydefrosch, post: 5653665, member: 151291"] would you stop assuming what the average specs of the machines in use are currently? because, yes, low end machines come with 4gb now, but its not like everyone in the world just bought their pc yesterday. the majority of people still never ever even open up their pc, or god forbid, ever exchange a single component in it. and even if it was like that, it still doesnt change the fact that chrome is just as big a memory slut as firefox is, often even more so, without the number of add ons to customize it. at the same time, they're both pretty much identically stable (only installing faulty add ons might cause a crash on firefox these days. and there's shitty add ons even among chromes limited options). and as far as speed is concerned, again, when i open both browsers at the same time, chrome is always 'open' more quickly, but when its about starting the browser AND opening a webpage (which is the important thing to compare) it always lags behind firefox. and if your argument is 'oh well i have all the ram and specs in the world' then it doesn't even matter. no browser works significantly better or quicker at that point, making any preference pretty much nonsense. which is why I'm assuming you're trying to compare chrome v44 to firefox 1.5 for some stupid reason. why not bring in netscape navigator while you're at it? or midasWWW [/QUOTE]

Man we were gonna have a game night at my buddy's house but he wasn't feeling great so he canceled, which throws my dinner plans up into the air, so I guess it's time to order a pizza or something
