Seriously cannot believe the amount of issues with Opera, Safari, Firefox, IE, and Chrome. What do you think is the absolute best?

Sucks.
Installed it on my girlfriend's computer (who was still using IE ). It wouldn't load any webpage.
Uninstalled. Installed Firefox. No problems.
Sorry, Chrome.
Granted: I ended up finding an IRQ conflict between her sound card and her NIC. BUT Chrome's cryptic "I can't load this webpage" was a whole lot less fucking helpful than being able to successfully poke around on the Internet with Firefox.
I always thought they were roughly equivalent until I ran into that little anomaly.

Firefox is still the best IMO, but chrome will eventually surpass it, i have no doubt in my mind.
Opera was cool for a week.
Safari was never cool.
Internet explorer should only be used to install a different browser, and it does its job fine.

How is Firefox better than Chrome? In all honesty they're pretty equivalent.

I use FireFox because I don't like tabbed browsing and you can't turn that feature off in Chrome.

I would say Opera and Chrome these days (Opera has always been good though, even back when they wanted money for it), especially if you do any web development

Opera is nice. Years ago, it had many issues with sloppily coded HTML pages. So people used Firefox. Firefox got the support (in terms of add-ons and extensions). To me, the support makes it better; I have a lot of nice add-ons I would not want to give up.
Firefox is a resource hog if you leave it running for a long time though. A quick restart of Firefox fixes that, although that shouldn't be necessary. (I'm also not sure if that is still a problem on the latest version.)

Chromium. All the lovely speed of Chrome, none of the crappy Google tracking built in.
