Very interesting. Firefox can run up some resources so that makes sense. I'll stick with FF over IE any day.

Could care less about power usage but I will stick with IE8 over FF any day.

IE8 FTW! :D

Only complaint is ABP doesn't natively work in IE8. Gotta' do some registry tweaking to make it work right, and I don't feel like doing such. :(

Otherwise, IE8 FTW! :D :p

Oh that.

I was hoping you meant the finalized version of Animal Butt Parade was finally released. I have been using the Beta for years it seems and it is running smoother than ostrich sh!t with Win 7, but yea if you have IE8 open it tends to crash it.
