Re: Google Chrome (7th Sep 08 at 11:43am UTC)
 
My main issue with Google Chrome that I just stumbled across today is lack of plug-in support. I'm not sure about Flash and others, but I know for a fact that Java does not work in Google Chrome.
Use the BETA version of Java I believe 6 10 instead of 6 7

Google Chrome uses an automatic installer that must be downloaded & installed on the same computer/drive. You can't put it in a flash drive then install it. {Wink}

Google Chrome has some lockup issues but not as bad as Firefox, Netscape, Safari or IE. Nice. I don't expect Google to become a top in the browser market but their ideas are WORTH it for these other big guys to look at.

I like that:

It's easy to use/not cluttered
That it takes a snapshot of a web page when you bookmark it.

What I don't like:

It's currently slower than Firefox right now.
It has to create a new process each time you use a new tab.

Being a multi-process browser is actually considered one of its advantages. When all the different pages run in their own process, and one starts causing problems, you can easily figure out which one. You can also tell if one is hogging up a bunch of resources. And if a page does something stupid and freezes, which would normally crash the browser, or make you have to end task, on Chrome only that tab is affected, and not all your other pages as well.

Just to add to that, it's also meant to be the fastest browser currently available; and for me at least, it loads both the program itself and webpages much faster than FF, IE, and Opera.

Google Chrome is only good for people with 1GB+ RAM {Tongue Out}

Now obsession rules my mind
This commotion makes me blind
Searching out who ever runs
Or has stolen away my life

But i've already said

Don't ever back down
Don't ever turn around
My end has come
So now I come for you....

I got 2 GB of RAM, and 88 GB of HDD

I downloaded the newest version and this one is way faster, and also my laptops mouse works in Chrome. Meaning when I scroll up it goes up. I downloaded it the day it came out, and just did not get around to it.

I actually like it ALLOT. Just not as much as Fire Fox. {Smile}
