lol... run the peacemaker and see what it has to say about it.
Every browser has its cons and pro:s. Firefox is nearly slowest browser and needs plug ins to be installed to get what most ppl want. Crome wont work in some pages (moslty web config pages that i know of) like dd-wrt router´s web config page, but you can see its clearly faster than opera or firefox. i have found opera to have best balance. It has speed, pages that dont work are really rare and for me all the features i need/want, mostly the zooming the page when some "smart" web desinger has got on hes had to make font really small or picture with good quality too small. Thats the best feature no other browser has been able to copy (yet).

Yeah it is but it isn't at the same time. Chrome has some small features are are nice too.
I tried chrome when it first came out for a day and then got rid of it, but I've switched over to it now. One thing I like compared to firefox is how the tabs work. I hate on firefox how when I'm closing a bunch of tabs in a row, they auto-resize themself in the middle of me closing and I end up closing some tabs I didn't mean to. No big deal, just go to history>recently closed tabs and click on the one I want.
Now chrome, they don't have this recently closed tabs option. They do have a history page though.
The main problem with chrome is that it suffers the same problems youtube.com suffers. I mean, people ask for features, and they don't get put in for a year. Look at the new features list for google chrome 2.0. It's absolutely pathetic. Oh neat our browser goes fullscreen just like all the other browsers in the world have been able to since 1995, same with form autofill too, now you can erase the porn sites from your most visited sites page, and it's faster! Really don't you need more stuff for a 2.0 release?

Firefox the slowest? Lol, the new beta is pretty speedy.
Most, if not ALL browsers need plugins.
I like you're facts:)

Firefox may be fast but its interface is cluttered thats the only reason i stopped using it. Mozilla filled the void it left till that project was canceled. Now im a fan of Seamonky.
Opera is a multi platform browser, the goal is not speed but stability.
IE is, well its fun to play with if its not yours.
Chrome is like a triple chocolate icecream cake pie, make it pretty and they will come...
SeaMonkey is like an opera/firefox a blend of both, although it doesn't like incomplete, or buggy poorly scripted websites and it ether loads them but takes forever or it times out.

I bet everyone has some alpha beta that is faster than current stable versions. Like opera 10 (beta) is faster than firefox beta... so i only speak most stable versions there is.
And no... not every browser needs plugins. I haven´t installed any plugins to opera, crome or ie (not that i ever used ie after i have downloaded opera), but firefox to become grate it needs those plugins.

Just have to point out, if you are going to give someone a tip on grammar, make sure you use the correct spelling for your post. :P
(should be great)

well done you found 1 typo on 24 lines.... bit different when you write 2½ lines with attemt to have sarcastic joke. I dont think he felt angry or anything since he didnt respond to that (and he most likely will get it right next time).
I just felt the that without the "new beta is speedy" the whole post would have been total waste of everyones time and last time i checked firefox beta was behind opera 10 (beta) which again makes it "nearly slowest" like i pointed out. I dont mind if you like to use firefox because of interface, but plz dont post false info or atleast say where i can go check the info. I rather use browser that most ppl dont use (less ppl intrested -> less malware/exploits).

It was a lighthearted poke. If you want to get critical, there were a lot more errors, as there are in your last post.
