    Speed isn't all :cool2:. Prefer a highly configurable and nicely fortified Firefox over any other browser. Additionally i highly distrust major vendor browsers like IE, Chrome and Safari.

    I don't have Firefox on my system because I don't like it. It uses large part of my system memory and I have some problem with deleting add-on.

    No such problems here (i use FEBE to backup my profile regularly). With some more than a dozen tabs open it uses ~500 MB here :cool2:.

    You have to check your memory used by Firefox while watching videos and see that it takes huge part of it than the other browsers. Deleting Add-on like flash player is sometime difficult,etc.

    With 16 GB RAM not really an argument for me, if 500-1000 MB are used.

    I try to avoid Youtube & CO as much as possible. Have no flash player addon installed and didn't miss it so far :g:.

    Good! One of my ultrbooks is 4GB non-upgradable, that would mean a lot to me when trying to carry out other activities. I only give an example of Flash player and there are many other add-on which can behave in the same way in Firefox.

    It's still the timebombed EVAL which will activate automatically with the default Preview key. For more info check the PREVIEW REPO link in my sig.

    Working hard or hardly working? Amirite?
    Or MS just lying hard to try to sell on corporate users; which won't happen.
    Businesses don't give a sh** about modern UI apps.

    ^^^ Maybe natural migration, of no real proof because it is within variation and the ones finally migrating would report that. With windows 8, 8.1 we have start menu classic, my favorite metro app, that lets you almost wipe out any sign of metro and forget about it. The problem is it still takes resources. With windows 10 it is in your face with pinned task icons that you can not get rid of "yet". That and the garbage on the start menu which you also need to get rid of, store, skippy etc. What corps want is all their employees to come in bright and early and click the search icon to see how they can waste their day. I like the add desktop but want it in the start menu and the mouse wheel following the pointer is well welcomed. I again think the decisions made by M$ are by kids that walk around with phones and none were born with the invention of the intel 8086 and MS DOS, how did IBM's world domination hold out? There is a whole world out there, governments and corporations, that back bone for productivity are desktops. Now about this world domination thing. We would like to make windows 10 all that it can be, will not be getting alive account, so we post here :D.

    But as we know our way around things, it's not really an issue.

    ^^^^ Yes but I hope u understand that I agree to disagree and not all corps do or have the time to deal with it. As far as I can see, to date, OS 10 will be another one that I will bypass on the corporate level, the OS's people actually pay for. That is M$ decision and for me and knowing how to get around we will not be incorporating this into our workflow, from what I see from its current development. We have that right and the right to push buttons in a hope of a professional alternative.
