I was a big believer in Firefox, had it for a browser since about 2005. Then about a year ago I started experiencing script error a lot, especially on this website (TOTV).

My golfing partner still works, he teaches accounting software, so he knows his way around a computer. One day he stopped by and saw me on my laptop and I asked him about the problem. He said he used Google Chrome for a browser. I downloaded Chrome a few days later, I was even able to change the appearance so it looked like my Firefox. I found it even easier to use and no more script errors. It really paid for itself, when about a couple of months later my 4 year old laptop crashed. It went totally black and wouldn't come on.

I bought a new all in one 21" HP computer, which was loaded with IE. I spent a day just trying to find all my important bookmarks and passwords and managed to maybe get about 15 established. Then I downloaded Chrome and to my amazement, all of my bookmarks (500 hundred or more), which some I had added years ago and forgot about, were all still there. It somehow stores all my info online so my information was all there as if nothing happened.
