I’m an avid fan of ad-blocking, so I’m very sceptical of any browser produced (and offered free!) by an advertising company.

Cool. Hope that they fixed the bugs in the first one.

Google, like AOL, is a virus.

I experimented with Safari for PC and Chrome, but have settled on using Chrome almost all the time, because the UI is a little better than Safari for PC. Both are blazing fast — much much faster than IE and Firefox.

Thanks but no thanks. I want nothing to do with GOOGLE. When I use Google I go almost always go through another server. No Google tool bars, NOTHING from Google. I check my registry every couple of weeks to make sure there is nothing that says google in there. If it there is, it gets deleted.

Haven't tried the beta, or the new version.

Still have a 1.x version that I play with occasionally, but I still use Firefox for the most part.

Chrome just doesn't have options I prefer, like opening in a new tab.
Maybe I just don't know how to set it up properly, but it's not for lack of trying.

Nothing against Google, I've used it for years, it's a good search engine.
I also use Yahoo, and Dogpile, and whatever makes me curious.

Chrome is faster, I'll give it that.
It's a little better for viewing video, but I've found that for the most part, it's the site's servers, not the browser.

I'll probably download the latest update and try it out, though.

Since I have so many computer users in my household, I am usually stuck with the oldest and slowest. Therefore, my browsing experience had left much to be desired. Chrome has made it a pleasure to browse again. Fast, with a low overhead.

your favorite, lightning-fast, “anti-establishment” browser

Yeah. Made by the people who turned in the Chinese dissidents to the government.

I like Chrome 1.0 but until they support add-on’s like firefox it won’t really meet my needs.
