Simply Amazing, I have yet to see any faults to the new Google Chrome download, The options and new app's to it make everything a lot easier than FireFox. If you have yet to download it, I consider you do so ASAP. If you have it, give a response, if not, well, It's your loss.

Eh... It's ok, but I like Firefox better. Chrome is pretty cool, though.

I love chrome, have been using it since it was released.

Just a few bugs here and there but overall it's my favorite.

yea i used to have it, but i download much, and i find FireFox much better for download than google chrome. If they update the download imma go ahead and use that instead.
Also i got google chrome from day #1 from when it was released, so i win =D

It's not the worst browser I've used, but it doesn't fix what I find wrong with Firefox and it has nothing of it's own that I like. The middle mouse button click to scroll through web pages is something Chrome doesn't have which is a travesty. Chrome doesn't have a home page button unless I'm blind and that's a huge turn-off as well. I wrote my own web page that contains links to all major websites I visit, the current weather, the time, and my school schedule, and that's real handy to have as a home page. Unless I'm not seeing it, Chrome doesn't even have a way to copy an image from a web page, that's asinine .

I had to actually minimize CSS today to shut off Chrome because it was a bigger FPS hog than Firefox is. Firefox would be the perfect browser if it didn't use an astronomical amount of memory and if it wasn't horrendously slow.

EDIT: I happened to try and test image copying on the SteamGamers thing at the top and it wouldn't go. I remembered using Chrome on my laptop and deciding to go back to Firefox and I thought maybe that was the reason why. My mistake.

I love it.

IE and Firefox look so bulky and old in comparison.

The only bug I've ever had with it was some random text highlighting on another forum, although it may have been the website.

press F11 makes it FULL screen

I like Opera (http://www.opera.com/) and IE7Pro (http://www.ie7pro.com/), but I think most of you will switch back to Firefox after the 3.1 (ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/releases/3.1b2/) release. All of them are as fast as Chrome and come with must have essentials that aren't included in Chrome yet. If you like the minimalist look of Chrome you can tweak them to look the same.

ive been running 3.1 beta since day 1. I personally have never seen firefox run slow or take up alot of memory since 3.0, but 3.1 runs even FASTER.

that being said, unless someone copy/pastes all the plugins that are for firefox, im NEVER switching, i depend on FAR too many.

but yes, as always im going to agree with good ol' zero here. After 3.1, every browser will be less than a second different in loading pages, so then it really is just up to taste, and i've already stated my taste is in ABP, along with the rest of the 20 addons i use.

Chrome will be really nice once the have Extensions support like Firefox, doubt I will change from Firefox as my main browser tho since 3.1 Beta 2 is as fast as the latest Chrome build.

I liked Chrome, but it wasn't supported by Comcast and it was always going way slower then Firefox, so i switched back o.o' It also didn't let me play a few browser games like on pogo and popcap.
