Google Chrome

[Gman]

A new revolutionary browser from Google. Just installed it and typing this with it. So far, the speed has me awed...

2. How does it compare to Firefox?

speed, features, etc.

5. Only been using it about 10 minutes

but it runs circles speedwise around FF. However, it is not near as customizable as FF. It does not have extensions (yet) which is what makes FF so unique. I like to right click to get a dictionary definition and I like my tabs on the bottom and to be able to hover over them to select them. Can't do it in Chrome, yet.

but there are some very excellent technical reasons why Chrome is a revolutionary and completely new browser, and probably the preferable browser.

4. I wished they had taken the small step from XP to include W2000

They are nearly the same thing, so why couldnt have supported it too?

:cry:

Think I'll give it a shot later in the year when I have more time to devote to it.
