You do know that Chrome is not "the original one" and that Edge is not a reskinned Chrome, right?

Edit: I don't know why I tipped off all rude like that over something so inconsequential. My apologies.

Edge is based on chromium, so yes you can say it's just a reskinned chrome, the only other rendering engine now is gecko, which is what is used by Firefox and it's forks.

No need to apologize, we all have our opinions,but I was expecting you to elaborate on that a bit.

Anyways,no harm no foul.
