I want to dump chrome and install Firefox as my new browser. I would like to take my chrome bookmarks with me into Firefox. Is there a "how to" to do this?

Firefox should ask for import of chrome bookmarks during first install.

You can also read Import bookmarks and other data from Google Chrome.

Thanx Ty, thats what I was hoping to read. One more question: Should install Firefox first and then delete chrome, or the other way around?

Do not remove Chrome first! In fact I suggest keeping it around for a few weeks because you may want to refer to your old settings, add-ons, and history while outfitting your Firefox.

Thanx J, sounds like I have a busy evening ahead. Great no-nonsense support. I'm very happy to be on board with Firefox. Thanx again.
