Firefox has become too slow with too many updates and internet explorer merits no further comment

If you think this is still true, then clearly you haven't used Firefox as of recent.
I wouldn't say Firefox is slow, but the UI still has weird latency issues that I don't see in Chrome.
For the record, I use both Chrome and Firefox, heavily. The Chrome UI is very rarely laggy. The Firefox UI is often laggy. It's maddening, and I wish Mozilla would fix it.
I find this true, and I've been an old Firefox user. Stopped for a while after a bunch of issues after 4, and after that I've been off and on really TRYING!, but nah.. sticking with Chrome.
Not always worth the effort of switching back and forth. I stopped using FF when it was a slow memory hog. I've heard good things about it recently, but I have no real incentive to switch back.
