To me it is mostly the UI issue. I actually prefer IE UI to FF, FF is the worst I have used (to me). Both IE and FF have some built-in unintuitiveness that I never understood (first item on right click menu on a hyperlink is 'open in new window?' wtf? first item on images is not 'save image' wtf x2?) When I click on images from a site that I visit daily, chrome opens them in a new tab as I would expect. IE opens it in a new window, defeating the whole purpose of having tabs. Not sure what FF would do.

For my browsing habits that I have acquired with chrome, neither FF nor IE is very acceptable. I had FF installed in my VMs recently to see if I could get myself used to it but heck no. Not saying it applies to everyone really, just that there are people like me that really appreciate little thoughts that went into chrome to make its UI more intuitive.

I am a big fan of the download bar at the bottom too, way better than having a whole separate window for a download manager IMO.
