While one browser dominating is obviously bad, they at least won the market [roughly] fair and square. Unlike Microsoft which bundles it with their OS and makes it impossible to uninstall.
Ever try using Google's sites in Firefox or Safari? Most people use Google services and started using Chrome because of Google hounding them to switch. Hell, every major site says to just use Chrome now, and if a real Chrome ever comes out for iPhone, people will just download Chrome because it's what they use on their computer.
Sincerely, a frustrated Firefox and Safari user
Absolutely. I'm not buying the "fair and square" argument. Firefox won over IE fair and square, by being better in every way, but that didn't last long enough.
