well I'm sure everyone will have a different opinion on this one..
It's my understanding that the difference with Chimera is that it's a 
'cocoa' version of Mozilla's  "gecko" engine ??
personally. .after having tried them all, I find Chimera to be the 
fastest of any browser I have tried on my G4/450 MacOSX box..

Chimera does crap out on me every now and again. But considering it's a 
0.6.0 version, and the speed alone makes up for the occasional crash 
for me.

I switch between it and IE, but I have recently made Chimera my default 
browser.
