One issue with Chrome -- NinjaTrader isn't compatible with it. On three different machines, NT causes Chrome to crash.

I had been using Firefox for long time, switched to Chrome about 6 months ago due to the fact it uses multiple processes.

Have used Chrome and NT 6.5 and NT 7 for a long time now. Never had Chrome crash and I have them running at the same time.

I use Safari most of the time, and Opera when I want to do big file download. Safari's mode of keeping, making available and rendering the history of all previously accessed web pages is a specialty (see attached screenshot ) and there's no browser that does this the way Safari does it; it is just exciting.
