Firefox and google-chrome

[Ali Linx (amjjawad)]

Hello Joel,

Chromium is a huge pain in the neck: http://i50.tinypic.com/15of7zp.jpg

This is a well-known issue with LOW RAM Machines such us 512MB. I'm a
Lubuntu Team Leader and User and whenever I test any release, Chromium is
the most crashing app :/

Thank you!

P.S.
Firefox became so light and the performance, IMHO, is much better :)
