    Hey Guys,
    I got my new HP Laptop and its really awesome. I dont see myself getting a new one for a long time. Its really an awesome machine. Anyway. What internet browser do you guys use?? I'm debating on downloading another one.

    Mozilla Firefox is probably the one I'll go with.

    Anyone use a different one thats better, faster, or safer than Firefox?? I know there are several out there. I want one thats more user friendly than - Internet Explorer.

    Anyone tried out the new Google - Chrome??

    I have the new Firefox and it is a improvement over the previous version, it had increased the speed of surfing and is a good solid browser. Chrome is pretty good as well, it is slowly improving and there are some things I like about it compared for Firefox. I have both and use them both just to change it up sometimes or try to see were Chrome need some improvement or were they have improved. I say stick with Firefox till Chrome is out a bit longer or get it if you just wanna play around with it.

    Long time Firefox user. Back as far as when I always used Netscape Navigator instead of Internet Exploder.

    I've dabbled with Safari (on Windows), but the 3.0 release was so shamefully buggy that I abandoned it.

    Longtime Firefox user but may migrate over to Chrome eventually once all the bugs are worked out.

    Firefox all the way. If you choose to use any of the addons written by others be careful with your choices as some still have some nasty memory leaks (will make you feel like a turtle). IE8 has improved DRASTICALLY from IE7, but still doesn't trump Firefox imo.

    I also went from Chrome back to firefox. I like Safari too but use firefox 99.9999% of the time.
    Just download them all and figure out which one you like best.

    Nice pick up! I got the dv7-1245dx and it has the 8GB potential capacity which I think is a pretty cool idea. I love it, has a great graphics card on it as well and I can't complain about the sound.

    I use Firefox. The scrapbook plug in allows you to take snapshots of web pages.
