I Started using Chrome as my Default browser and its rocks. I really can't wait till it's out of beta.

But I remember also that google loves staying in beta, look at some of there stuff that says beta.

I dunno... I've been trying Chrome out and it seems laggy to me lately. It worked great the first day, but it's starting to really drag (that darn "resolving proxy" message at the bottom chaps my hide!).

Okay? I replied to Dizzy's post about benchmarks, not which browser was better.

Google Chrome is brand spankin new and in my opinion its the best browser, i love the layout its soooo nice to have a large window without heaps of toolbars, its faster then IE and Opera in general and it even has auto-spell check!

Problem with the Adblock+, it does work but you have to click the button each time.

Face it, Chrome needs more development before it enters the realm of being suggested as a browser for people to use.
