Using Chrome as my primary, FF as my secondary, Safari my tertiary browser.
Safari mostly because it has virtually no features and add-ons compared to
FF. Even Chrome is adding them as they go.

I have MobileMe. How do I use it to synchronize Safari bookmarks on
my Windows machine at work?

Part of the reason for the name change from .Mac to MobileMe was to get
people not to think it's a Mac-only service. MobileMe syncs Safari
bookmarks in Windows machines, too.

Meanwhile, though, as I've already said, Xmarks, which you're already
using, works with Safari, so you have no need for MobileMe in this
regard.

(for other people's info)

Chrome for OS X is beta, and X-marks isn't yet ready for it. But, as
with Opera, it has its own bookmark syncing.

Until Chrome for OS X also has an Adblocker, 1Password/LastPass as well
as Xmarks, it's unusable.
