I only use Firefox for stuff that load Java and when Chrome and Flash 
don't gel and for web interfaces that don't like or work in Chrome. For 
general browsing, videos, I use Chrome. But then I am on Kubuntu Hardy. 
That could be one big reason why I say this. Now that I think about 
it...firefox on the Lucid box at home does not seem to have the same 
issues as it does on Kubuntu Hardy.
