as far as I know, I have not installed it (deliberately).... and my google page and browsing look and feel just the same.... (I think)
Is there any visible difference between the Firefox I am used to without Google Chrome.... and the Firefox WITH Google Chrome?

It's just another browser....although some will say, being Google it won't be so innocent itself.

I have read about some "naughty bits" that spy on you with Chrome,. and don`t want to have that.... hence my query as to "is there any visual distinction"... to recognise it vis a vis other google brower on Firefox,....

I don`t usually miss those sneaky little boxes that you have to tick or untick.... and don`t remember updating anything unless it was an "auto" update ....
all`s well that ends well, I suppose... (sneaky blighters )

Just to clear up a misunderstanding. You can't run "Firefox with Google Chrome". Chrome is a browser just like Firefox is a browser, just like Internet Explorer is a browser. I have it installed and it's fine - I just usually use Firefox since it's more versatile.
If you really want your computer messed up try installing Safari - that brings with it a lot of undesirable "Appleness".

Even before I switched from Windows to Linux I was a Firefox fan. But recent versions of FF have become slower and slower. So I tried Chrome (the Linux version of Chromium) and found it altogether better. Much faster and cleaner. I love it

I find FF to be working fast enough for me... haven`t noticed any slow down since I first used it... (may be very slow by increments to be un-noticeable)

"The last time we compared all five major Web browsers Google Chrome had just over 12 percent of the market. That's now doubled, and it looks like Chrome's market share will pass Firefox's soon."
