[Gatecrasher]

Been using Chrome extensively. Love it.

Using Chrome to post this. I love it. There are a few things like RSS I would like it to support but it is still early BETA so I suppose that will come in time...

Chrome is just another attempt at creating a monopoly. Fight it! For freedom and liberty! http://www.geeknewscentral.com/archives/008226.html

I like it but would rather wait for it to come out of beta. There are some rough edges still.

I think they changed the EULA a few days later. Chrome's really good for webapps. Just waiting for the Linux version so I can dump Prism, which is way too heavy.

I have it installed on my laptop (along with FF and Opera) and I must say, Chrome is super-fast. Still has a few teething problems though, such as not allowing me to scroll up on the touchpad on my laptop (but a wheel mouse on pc works fine).

Doesn't have a linux version, so no go for me.

And no, the wine version doesn't count.

Can't wait till it leaves beta!

I don't see a home button anywhere. Anyone seen one?

 

[HavocXphere]

Needs a lot more polish...but its a promising start.

Must be honest, I still prefer FF(Habit). What worries me and I dont want to over dramatise but Google is starting to become another Microsoft. Their intention is to gather control. Carefull we do not allow them too. Keep the balance chaps

the force is strong with this one.

but seriously though - we all know google is expanding and taking (has taken?) over the net and has more and more information than ever.

we don't want to create big brother ourselves do we?

but, their slogan is "do no evil" so meh...we can use chrome so long...

still no OS X version

still no OS X version

Do we need one? We've already got Webkit and it supports Safari's add-ons.

 

[w1z4rd]

I think there was a problem with the port of Safari to Windows.. because it sucked so much on Microsoft platforms. I was put off it from that perspective.. I have not tried it running OSX.. because OSX isnt what I want in an OS.

looks cool.
was using FF on the mac for a while, but went back to Safari.

You can switch it on: Settings/Options/Basics/Show Home button on the toolbar
