Well
I think Chrome even if itīs not a beta anymore, itīs a very young browser, fast in fact but very limitated in other functions, maybe in a couple of years is going to be a great option, but by now Iīll stick to the majestic Opera!

Some issues I run into (I've used it since day one of it's release to the public):



Flash videos work off and on. This seems to be consistent, I will go to play a youtube video and will need to restart the browser because the audio or video will not play.

Spellcheck sucks.

Very few add on's. Add on's are what make firefox so great.

Some pages just do not interact well with Chrome. If you go to a lot of message boards you know what I mean.

Highlighting anything is a PIA. Many times you will will try to highlight one individual word and end up with long blank fields. When you copy and paste it then just comes up blank with the whole field minus the word...WTF??


Other then those few things it's a great browser and I use it full time for work and play.

I.M.O not enough to it yet, security wise i can beef up Firefox, don't like Google policies & i need a browser that works efectively on UMPC so Firefox 3 it is...

One of co workers installed chrome on my computer at work so I gave it a try. I started using it more and more since it starts up in half the time IE, or Firefox does. Since then I've been using it ever since. I don't need the fancy plug-ins from firefox and IE just plain sucks. Easy choice IMO.

Also its no longer in beta.

I would recommend switching to "SRWare Iron" as it is Chrome without all the Spyware Crap that Google put into the Browser (Unique ID, constantly running updater and stuff like that).
It is based on Chromium, which is the base for Google Chrome.
It even looks and handles the same as Chrome & Chromium...

I used Chrome since the beta because I preferred the look of it.
Thanks to this thread - I'm now using SRWare Iron which I'll keep an eye on too..
Cheers.

After I using Iron for a week I switched back to chrome. Spellcheck doesn't work, and its slower to load pages. The privacy issue isn't a problem because there are programs which remove your unique ID and you can simply disable sending google your browsing information in the options menu. The only thing that Iron has going for it over Chrome is a better looking icon.

I to have been using google chrome since the earlly beta.
to clear things up, There are two version available. Stable releases and a "developer" version (which is like a beta version.)

Personally i love the broswer for its speed but like already mentioned, it doesn't like all websites. I can't stand IE so i keep firefox around incase i have problems. Things are getting beter all the time for chrome though (for example it used to be almost useless for facebook and now its basically fully compatible) I'm proud to say its my default browser ;)

Haven't used Chrome, but can't say I want to. I would much rather stick with a program developer than let google do what the hell they like with all my browsing data. (Thats only my choice)
I use Opera on my Vista and Seven OS'es but Safari on my Hackintoshes. Only problem with opera is that on Natwest Online Banking they check your user agent string, and when opera updates, Natwest don't update quick enough so it says I have an unsupported browser. Same problem with IE8 (My support browser on Windows) but compatibility mode is an excellent feature!

I have almost all of these browsers and have used them quite a bit. I like Chrome's speed....its fast! I also like the ability to pull off a tab into its own window. Uses a whole lot of resources though...

Overall though I'm sticking with FireFox. Got it set up just the way I like it! :D

I'm using Firefox and Chrome the most time. Sometimes also Opera or IE when i need it to test some websites ...

But i think at the moment i'm using Chrome a little bit more than FF ;)

Google Chrome is the best. I run canary build and the dev channel on my win xp netbook and the the dev channel on my cr-48. The best thing is, if I add an extension or web app from the Chrome App store it syncs between both my machines. (Not to mention Sparky's when I sign in on his machine) As for browsing history, in my settings I have it set to pause so, Google doesn't collect anything.

Chrome Fast. Loyal, devoted and semi-fanatical user since version 3-ish (I think it was still beta then).

And guys, it is a running gag in Googlesphere that none of their popular products are ever out of beta.

Firefox 4 is awesome with faster speed and less resource used.
However, currently Chrome is still my default brower. :)

I love the chrome web store. I really love that when I install an extension or web app on my cr-48, that if I need to log into Spark's cr-48 or my windows netbook, I fire up Chrome, sign in and it's all there. :D:D:D:D ( even my theme of the cr-48 Hamster!):p
