Re-Imagining Linux Platforms to Meet the Needs of Cloud Service Providers
"Chrome was also the only browser that wasn't cracked in seconds
or minutes in the recent PWN2OWN hacker competition. In fact,
Chrome never was busted.
"So, why isn't Chrome my number one? Well, for one thing, it's
Windows only, and I'm not a Windows-only kind of computer user.
Linux is my main desktop, and I also use Macs a fair amount. What I
want is a browser that will work on all three of the main desktop
platforms.
"Internet Explorer 8. I know many of you won't believe this, but
I actually rather liked Internet Explorer 8, when I first started
using it. I especially liked that I opened one tab from a link in
another, the 'related' tabs have the same color. By automatically
organizing the tabs by color-coding, I found that managing tabs was
instantly much easier."
