[Electronics-talk] Google Crome

Fri Nov 20 19:36:36 UTC 2015

Hi Jim,

I also do experience bugs with I E.  I also have had difficulties with
Firefox.  Either browser pretty much does what I need.  Since I have never
taken a cruise, I doubt that will motivate me to switch to Chrome.    My
wife definitely wants to take a cruise, though, so, you never know.

I would be surprised if MicroSoft will let other browsers get too far ahead.
That is not to say that they won't, but the competition seems pretty
intense.  All of this is interesting and has a certain entertainment value
to me, so, if I feel like taking on another challenge I may install Chrome
and look for a cruise for my wife and me. (smile)
Thanks for the helpful reply.

Warmest Regards,

Fred

Good question Fred.  I keep having IE crashes, and some web pages, (e.g.)
the Carnival cruise lines pages, just won't work with IE.  If you call their
support lines, they tell you to use Google Crome, and apparently all your
problems will go away.  I'd thought that the web development languages such
as HTML, ASP, and the like were standards, but apparently more and more web
developers are only testing with, and supporting, Crome.

Supposedly Crome is faster too, but so far I'm not as impressed as I'm
supposed to be.

Hello Jim,

I do not use Chrome.  I am curious what motivated you to try it?  I use I E
and am mostly satisfied.  I am always looking for ways to improve my
browsing experience.  I am not very willing to go through a bug ridden
learning experience, but would try Chrome if it works well and has
advantages over I E.

Thanks for your thoughts.

Warmest Regards,

Fred
