    Is it possible to have more than one metro browser? I would love to have chrome and IE in metro format. If I open up IE after I made chrome default, it opens up the desktop version. Pet peeve of mine :)

    I find that Chrome in Windows 8 mode, is a really clean browser and I use it for my school as IE in 8.1 doesn't work.

    No. Only one browser is usable in Metro mode. I changed my default browser from IE to Firefox Nightly. IE only opens in desktop now that Firefox Nightly is my default browser.

    I had nightly before I uninstalled it a while back. How do you like Nightly?

    I love it. I use it in both Windows 8 Pro and in Linux Mint 15. Despite the "warnings" about possible instability, I have not experienced any crashes.
