and not to mention if you ever want to change anything in firefox, down to the most specific detail, all you have to do is put about:config into the top bar. theres no way to do that kind of customization in chrome...

Meh things that just work are better, no?
I bet 90% of users don't even know of about:config nor use it. The people that have, just followed some instructions to make FF faster. Even then it wasn't as fast as chrome. When it comes down to it I think speed is the real issue.
Both browsers are open source so both technically have all the customization you would ever want...If you understand every option in about:config I would assume you know a bit about programming...

False statement is false. I'm on chrome right now, I can get to any bookmark in a second. Open bookmark manager under the wrench icon, or just keep the bookmark bar up there.
I will check out k-meleon, never heard of it.
The same i always just keep my bookmarks manager tab open.I tried firefox and it's all right but it just doesn't do for me.
As one guy put it (to something different, but the idea is relevant to me):
Quote:The only boards that are worth having are the ones that validate my opinion of myself as an ubergeek. My entire self worth springs from my ability to adjust pointless hardware parameters through a poorly designed interface cobbled together by Korean sweatshop developers.
I will never buy a motherboard that doesn't allow me to set the Clock Phase Skew to 0.25, or and the Memory Overdrive Voltage to 1.79. Those are the correct values. If your Apple motherboard doesn't have a byzantine boot menu that allows you to set them, then you're being kept in a walled garden. If you allow Steve Jobs to be an authoritarian control freak who prevents you from setting your memory timing to 4-3-3-2, then why don't you just an iPad and a Wii, and the rest of us will use the real computers.
Now if you excuse me, I need to change the fuel injectors in my car. It's getting near winter, and as the air density increases I need to change the fuel air mixture. It's important that you stay on top of this. Only sheep leave it the same year round.
