G'day,
A hardly innocuous subject title, I know... but... Is Chrome evil?
Google is of course evil, taking over the world, etc etc etc. But then so is Apple in that regard, so... oh hell, is Apple evil?
Strike that...
Early 2009 iMac, 10.9.2, 4GB RAM, running Firefox 26.0 (have tried to upgrade, but it just sits trying to download, and goes no where)
I'm currently using Firefox, but what I often notice is that after a while (day, few days) its CPU usage goes through the roof, and it has to be restarted. And... in this age of non-restarting computers, it's just... annoying.
Safari's never done it for me for some reason... And I gather Internet Explorer and Netscape are dead... so... that leavesevil Google's Chrome.
As the new boy on the market, does Chrome cut it? Does it report back all my activity to Google (any more/less than any other browser)? Can it butter toast?
Cheers,
cosmic
