    I don't mind which browser I use, just as long as I can find my way around. On Chrome across the board at the minute, it's quick and painless.

    Well, that's not exactly true, is it? It is more a positive comment about Microsoft interlaced with some very negative comments about alternative browsers:

    So you cannot blame the people you refer to for responding a bit, well, defensively.

    Personally I use Firefox because it has a whole useful and flexible range of add-ons (in-webpage unit conversion, download manager, open-text-as-link script etc) and it syncs bookmarks. I occasionally use Chrome if I need something quick and lean; it also works very smoothly with Google web-based services, and syncs bookmarks. Both update in the background.

    Previous versions of IE were a bit clumsy (accelerators were a disaster). IE10 is better than previous versions but it needs a bit more work.
