I am trying it right now (at work) however since there is no linux version available I will probably not be using this beyond today. I will give it a try though

Alright, that was a decent hour of internet browsing. Chrome installed and uninstalled. Horray for slacking at work.
My Review: I like it, its okay but there's not enough to it. Its simple and minimalistic which is cool but it doesn't offer any of the things I am used to. Nor does it offer the HTML development tools of Firefox. The download toolbar is cool and the UI is interesting, I also like how when you download something instead of a bar its a circle that gets steadily filled with color. Circles are awesome.

yea its much faster loading compared to firefox and opera. I'm using a really old computer, so it actually makes a difference.
Problems I have found are, when the browser hangs up, it hangs my entire system. Where as IE/firefox/opera, then they hang, my computer can still do other task. But over all, its a really nice web browser. |

Im using it, I like it. Only problem I found was that they didn't include the middle click way of scrolling which I just started to like but found annoying b4 now.

they said they were working on a Linux version its just not out yet. Hopefully it will be shipped with major distributions.
I just hope that the linux version is color matched to the GNOME/KDE like firefox is, because it would just just terrible to have a blue browser with my current scheme.

I havent used it yet myself but after seeing my buddy mess around with it at school, it seems like it will be very fast and handy. I like that every tab is its own program thus if a tab were to crash it doesnt screw up any of the others.
I plan on getting it in a few minutes here -------------------- -Brian
