I agree.* The speed difference would be minimal and it wouldn't
  suffer from the bloat.* Even Waterfox has bloat.* Opera seems to
  have speediness but it lacks all the features I like. Great
  HTML5 support for Opera though. Youtube works like a dream on
  Opera.* But Waterfox is my workhorse. I want Chrome to make it.*
  I keep rooting for it and it's great at certain things,
  especially the land of add-ons.* I installed Chromium OS in a
  virtual machine once.* It was pretty neat.* But Chrome remains
  in the "not quite there yet". Then again, ALL browsers will
  remain "not quite there" 'til they ditch the HTML/Javascript duo
  and give us something better.* One describes flat pages.* The
  other is a useful if awkward scripting language that can
  manipulate elements nicely.** Very hack.* Amazing how much we
  depend on it.
