I’ve tried Apple Safari. It loads pages slow. Google Chrome is very fast and doesn’t buffer Youtube videos like FF and Safari do. IE8 is relatively fast in comparison to FF and Safari as well.

IE doesn't buffer the video because it is a crap web brower running on a crap operating system. Buffering is a good thing if the operating system is good enough, especially if you want to scrub the video (reposition the time indicator), or store the video.
