    It's nice. I'm not noticing the huge difference everyone else apparently is though. Of course my FF was pretty much stripped down as it was. Still playing with the new Cable too though. No idea what is or isn't working at the moment.

    found one small issue. In IE and Firefox you can right click a picture and set as your desktop without saving. With this you can't

    Keep in mind this is a beta release. I have a feeling with a little maturity its going to be a force in the browser arena! Also the guy on cnn with the review is probably out of the realm of the average user considering he supposedly runs 40-50 browser windows simultaneously ?!!

    I have to agree with Ninja. It is amazing for a Beta. I'm using it for everything. I just hope start making an ADBLOCK addon so I can block it all off.

    Seems to load much faster than IE but it seems to not let me scroll down the page every time. And once you scroll down it doesn't let you use scroll back up with the touch pad on the laptop

    Chrome is cool, I was trying it out for a little while, but be careful of this little tidbit.

    From the Chrome EULA:

    Mine did it when it installed, a box came up showing it open for the first time and it copied all my IE favorites over. The bookmark box on this one is on the far right though, Not like other browsers. You did see the "Other Bookmarks" tab on the far right?

    If it wasn't obvious, companies tend to copy and reuse their EULA's. Google simply made a mistake, and this portion of the EULA doesn't apply well to this product. They've came out and said multiple times that they are correcting it. Google = good
    Google =/= Microsoft

    I wonder how it's maintaining it's load speed. Most browsers use cookies and other little files that are saved on your comp to maintain faster load times after you visit a site. Chrome doesn't seem to retain cookies so I'm wondering where it's storing information at.
