I care. I use Firefox for all my browsing now. Haven't come across anything it can't do. The extensions actually seem better and more diverse than chrome. I actually prefer the UI to chrome also.

simooooo··on Finance Pros Say You’ll Have to Pry Excel Out of Their Cold, Dead Hands
Currently web-ifying a huge pivot table (30+ columns) into a dynamic library SQL report for access via the web. It's a nightmare of horribly complicated aggregate grouping/totalling across many columns.

NOT speedy.

I agree. No dependencies is nice, but you step into a myre of dealing with low level pdf faffery. I'd rather let a very robust external tool with proven reliability
