| After the way Google f'd up my home page, I'd be reluctant to use their browser.Boycotted Beijing Olympics 2008 |

| I quite like it. It's more minimal than firefox and seems stable enough so far.I just wish it fitted in with the rest of my windows a bit better (it being blue and all the others are black framed)-------------Charlie |

| Apparently it has the same bug that safari used to have i.e. exe's can be dropped onto your machine without your knowledge. I've also found that it doesn't render some pages properly for me (low spec work machine so that could be a factor). I also miss the google toolbar ironically. Having said all that I think it has some good ideas and I like it. If they resolve the bug I will probably make it my default browser.steve-----------ASCII and ye shall receive. |

| Of course, if you believed the first end user licence agreement then google now owns all the data that has flowed through the browser!I doubt your information officers will approve of that!-------------Charlie |

| Is it just me? When I use it the page doesn't always render fully, so I have to refresh, sometimes a few times, to get the full page on screen.steve-----------ASCII and ye shall receive. |

| Its just you. There's special exception logic in the browser code. Get the open source code and search it for "if user='elwoos'".Somebody at Google apparently doesn't like you.Boycotted Beijing Olympics 2008 |
