Sony doesn't promote its PS4 by saying it offers 40% more power over Xbox one. In fact, it's extremely rare for any company that sells products to even mention another brand, Microsoft is absolutely one of the biggest offenders of this - Phil talks about Sony all the time, to the point where I've thought to myself on numerous occasions that he probably has paranoia and self esteem issues. I would too if I had the resources of Microsoft and still couldn't win a console generation lol.

And, to elaborate on your previous post, W10 is not a free update. In many documented cases, it was a forced update where the user was not asked for permission (and now it even costs money). They went so far as to change what the "X" does on that upgrade pop up - instead of it meaning close out of the pop up, they changed it to mean "yes go ahead and upgrade" which is EXTREMELY deceptive considering "X" has unanimously used to mean "exit" or "close" since PCs have been on the mass market. Not only do you have those kinds of problems, but then, after MS stopped pushing W10 out for free they mandated an anniversary update (means you have to download it) that stripped away a slew of admin rights such as disabling the store front or stopping push applications from downloading. 

There's a lot more behind the steps they've taken with W10. If you can't see how it's bad, you're either a full on liar or you're extremely ignorant and I'm not going to sit here and spell things out for you, but

Tl;dr - it's not normal or acceptable for a company that essentially holds a monopoly over a market to coerce people into their product with or without their permission, and then leverage that monopoly to cripple other companies in different markets (in this case the web browser market).

Do they? I just loaded google up in IE - no mention of it there. Loaded it up in Firefox - I don't see any mention there either.

Safari? Nope still no pop up saying "chrome is better use chrome".

So can you explain - or link to a source - how visiting google on any browser will cause it to say "using chrome is better"?

Me too, my main browser is Firefox for at least two reasons, the first is that it's the one that can open the highest number of windows and tabs without becoming excessively slow and slowing the system down, the second is that I can share the same user account very easily amongst different OS' also locally, without the need of online services. In the past there were other reasons too, not being tied to the OS too tightly, when FF crashed it didn't make Windows crash with it too, unlike IE, and it was a lot safer too, as IE used to store sensible user data without user's permission in the file index.dat.
Chrome is my secondary browser, I keep it cleaner, with less extensions and plugins and I open a lot fewer windows and tabs with it, If I opened more than 100 tabs with Chrome like I do with FF, the system would crawl to a halt.
Nevertheless I still like Chrome a lot more than any MS browser I ever tried.
