I mostly use Chrome because of how fast it is, but I have Opera installed and occasionally mess around with it.

I'm thinking of actually switching to Opera at some point because it seems shinier and has some cool features, but I hate having to make such a jump from a minimalistic browser to such a feature-rich one.

Usually Chrome, but sometimes I switch to Firefox because that's the only one that supports Acrobat 9 Pro it seems.

Used to use firefox, but switched to Chrome as soon as I saw how much bigger it made the screen look :D.

I've been a Firefox user for as long as I can remember, and I've no intention to ever switch to anything else. Switched to Chrome for a couple of months when I was having problems, but went back to Firefox as soon as I sorted it out.

I have Opera and Safari installed from back when I was building a website for someone and wanted to test it on as many browsers as I could think of. Just never got around to uninstalling them. That was a long time ago so they're probably horribly out of date versions by now.

Opera. I like the ability to personalize anything and set preferences most people would be confused by.

Opera = geek power.

I use the search bar mostly. Not many people use it, but it works for me.

I mostly use Chromium but I also use Firefox for anonymous browsing.

Chromium is the original browser from which Google Chrome was derived. It's exactly the same except it doesn't auto-update (updates are however shipped through Ubuntu repositories) and it doesn't report usage.
I've got Chromium on my Ubuntu install, but I've not made the switch from Firefox yet despite it being an awful memory hog. I just can't stand the tabs at the top of the screen.

Firefox is fast, but most importantly has spell check.
Recently it's been getting a internal server error, but it's getting better.

Firefox but I work for a school district where some online applications are Safari, Firefox, or Internet Explorer 7 specific.

It's a pain.., I prefer Firefox.

So when you say PC does that mean only Windows systems? 'Cause I use Chrome in Win7 but Safari in OS X.

Firefox backed by IE and Safari. Won't use Chrome 'cause of some beef I have with a few buddies of mine on the development team.

Mostly I use Firefox, because I like the Tolkien theme I have on it and I'm familiar with it. But I voted for Chrome, since that's what I use for watching streaming videos, Twitter, and the Escapist. Firefox crashes a little too often and has increasing difficulty with YouTube as I watch successive videos.

I used to use IE for these purposes, but Chrome's faster, so I switched.

Regarding search engines, though, I prefer Bing over Google.

Firefox, since like 2 years ago IE completely broke on me. Couldn't download anything without the browser crashing.
