Only tried it for a minute, but it ain't going to work without extensions as somebody said above, especially adblock.

One thing I did notice though, is it isn't offering to save passwords. Well, I only tried allegro.cc

I really like the auto completion. First time I launched Chrome I typed allegro.cc, and Chrome suggested both allegro.cc and allegro.cc/forums/recent. It kind of felt like Chrome read my mind, as I was headed for allegro.cc/forums/recent.

It does, but it's possible it remembered settings from Firefox.

It have imported all your Firefox settings, that's told during the installation, but as big nerds you are, you gone past the installer as quick as a geek can X-D

Nope, as it wouldn't have asked me to log in on both occasions.

Chrome doesn't know what Opera is to import settings, doesn't have a user-set speed dial or mouse gestures, fails completely to recognise the '/' key as a shortcut for search and gives google pretty much free reign to do anything with any information you view or submit using it.

No biggie, as any good Republican would say, if you don't have anything to worry about, you should not care about that.

It is the same with Gmail, if I recall correctly. And AngelChild, I would continue but my boss doesn't like me searching for images :P

Does it have to be somebody else or can I do it again?

The javascript is smoother allright (okay, it's blazing fast on sites where Opera on the same computer occasionally makes Windows think it's hung), but in every other aspect it is inferior to Opera. :)

You don't deserve my sig.

I've found a way to crash firefox, or at least cause it to freeze for a few minutes. Whether it's a bug I don't know.

Basically sometimes I enter a word in the addressbar instead of the search for google and firefox either hangs completely forcing a restart or freezes for minutes on end. Presumably trying to search for the domain. Either way, it shouldn't do this.

What version of Firefox are you running. I've got 2.0.0.16 and that method of search works just fine. Well, sometimes when I type words like 'word' it'll go to an actual website instead of the Google search for said word. Also, I don't even have a Google search bar on mine.

EDIT-- Another quark that I'm not too fond of. If you grab the scrollbar and drag your mouse to the top of the screen, putting it in the toolbar where the close, etc, buttons are, it resets the position of the scrollbar.

I'd imagine that one of the most troubling things about Chrome is that it exhibits a carpet bombing bug that exploits the connection between WebKit and Java, first discovered in the Windows version of Safari but fixed by Apple (with fixes contributed back into the open WebKit sourcetree) back in June. The bug can lead to malicious code execution.

So, Chrome is actually less secure than other public browsers pushed by large corporations from the same open source roots, and Google are taking more than two months to incorporate security fixes even before the thing is out in the public arena.

Is this really the way to win a nerd audience?
