Web Browsers Put To The Test

When it comes to browsers, you have many options (listing a few): Firefox, IE, Safari, Opera and now Chrome. While the browser you prefer is simply that, personal perference, it is interesting to read reviews of how well they perform when compared to each other. ExtremeTech recently ran an article which tests these browsers called ‘Which Web Browser is King?‘.

While the article is an interesting read, if you want to cut to the results here they are (note, the point system is explained in the article):

Based on our arbitrary score assignments, Google Chrome is the speed king:
Google Chrome—30 points
Mozilla Firefox—20 points
Opera—10 points
Did not place: IE7, Safari

These are pretty object tests, but speed isn’t always the most important thing to consider when choosing a browser as, again, it boils down to whichever one you like the best.

    wel I dont know where to put this comment because Im still new to this site but I bought the system medic cd and I was going through the programs and I noticed that the programs keylogger and sstay out will not install. so I wanted to know if you had an upgraded edition of system medic and there are some of the programs that has the message for 98 edition so I take it that there are some upgrading needed, I really like this disk its very helpful but I really need the keylogger or personal inspector software, thankyou
