    Google chrome is still slower than FireFox, I think. Its starting process is faster but the load process to browse websites is still slower than FF. If it can be customized like FF, that'll be great. But still, Google chrome is not something innovative so I don't see it as a great feature or anything like that.

    With hindsight now, I am back to using IE and FF, I just generally feel more comfortable using these, I will use Chrome for certain things that when working on a process IE and FF will both timeout after 15 min or so, however I notice chrome does not and is very reliable in that aspect, however for everything else I am preffering alternatives.

    no sane webmaster is going to abandon FF with all the developmental plugins that are available but i think Chrome is a valid contender for the general public. they just need to add a few things past this initial beta release that people come to expect of a normal browser and i think it could take off.

    If you got to googles addons it takes you to firefoxes addons, im thinking the firefox addons will soon work with chrome, maybe, just an observation

    i have to respectfully disagree. it might of been a canned document but those words have never before been seen in any other products such as gmail, their google apps, grand central service, etc... if you can find another product with the same wording as the original EULA then i'll retract and eat my wording regarding backing down. :D
