Reviewing 17.0.963.46 Beta (Jan 31, 2012)
I like Google Chrome but until they fix the issue with Symantec Endpoint Protection and having to turn off the Sandbox. I cant give it a high review.

Reviewing 17.0.963.38 Beta (Jan 19, 2012)
I loved Chrome since it's first appearance, now I use Pale Moon, as fast if not faster than Chrome & is optimised for Windows.
Take note that when Chrome auto updates you need to delete manually the old version or you end up with wasted space, not difficult to do.
Chrome is still great but I have now removed it & use PM exclusively & love it.

A good browser with minimal distractions to get in your way. Has a bit of learning curve (to figure out where certain features are), but very manageable. Using this more than IE currently.
Those complaining about Chrome's relatively low rating should realize that a lot of people are comparing it to Firefox, a far more flexible browser. If the sort of power granted by extensions, live bookmarks and so on are important to a user then its only natural for them to give Chrome less weight. I have no doubt that on many systems (perhaps even most), Google's browser is probably faster and a lot more efficient than FF, which is a bit of a pig if you install more than a handful of extensions..but for some folks a couple extra seconds of load time or a an extra 50mb of RAM are more than worth the custom experience FF can provide. For most people opinions are 100% subjective.

Resistance is futile, you will be assimilated. In my estimation in a year Chrome will be the number one browser for thinking users. With IE number one among the masses.

I've tried the adblock+ extension and it pales compared to what you can do with Opera or Firefox.
The mouse gestures (mouse stroke) one isn't much better.
It'll take a couple more years before G Chrome makes it to the big league.
I poked around and found this about the latest beta:

Way over my head though

I keep seeing people talking about various addons for Chrome, but I am running 3.0.195.27 and I see no plugin/addon support anywhere. Nothing about it on Google, either.
Hello, by default Google Chrome will not update to Dev channel releases such as the 2.0 branch.
Read this for details on how to get the updater to update to Dev channel builds: http://dev.chromium.org/...ng-involved/dev-channel
Is this an upgrade? Supposedly, Google Chrome does an upgrade automatically. If you click on tools/about chrome, it says whether it is up to date. Mine says Google Chrome up to date (1.0.154.48)
