    Some things I immediately noticed about Chrome back then.

    1. It doesn't remember passwords like FF does. (That may have changed, but it didn't at the time.)

    2. They didn't have an option not to have all of your frequent web sites show on the main page. I do a lot of banking, and other things with my personal account info and I don't need that showing on my main page every time someone loads the internet on my computer. (Maybe they fixed that too who knows)

    3. The bookmarking feature is clumsy, or was back then. It was hard to organize and keep track of your bookmarks. I hope they overhauled this, because it was obnoxious before.

    I might give it a shot again if they have made these much needed improvements. Until then FF has done everything I've needed a browser to do.
    I have GC for mac, and the beta was just released a couple weeks ago. All the things you have mentioned are in the browser for me, so it should have been in the windows version quite a while ago.

    I just switched to Google Chrome, and it is by far my favorite.

    I am actually quite fond of Google Chrome...

    I usually could care less about my browser and settle for the normal internet
    explorer on the computer, but Google Chrome is quite nice.

    Yeah I love FNL. 4th season is good, but its kinda all over the place. Might be the last season.
    unfortunately i've either got to wait for it to hit nbc, or find a friend nice enough to download the season for me when it's finished (my internet has limitations on how much bandwidth i can use per month)... i've read that it's been renewed for a season 5 under the same method direct tv first, nbc later... anyways, back on topic... I love google chrome, it's not always asking me to install plugins that should have come with it lol
