Re: Google Chrome

I tried Chrome out. It is pretty cool. It is still in beta though.
A couple problems I noticed.
1. The only version of Java that supports Chrome is the newest beta version. To use Java you have to uninstall Java and then install 6u10 JREs
2. After installing the beta Java Chrome still didn't play the Coin-Op games but it played the others
3. When opening a new tab they sometimes open to the left and sometimes to the right. Kind of annoying.
4. I think the name is a little stupid.

Over all I like it and think it will be a major competitor with FireFox and IE.

Re: Google Chrome

I won't use it until they get their EULA right. Sorry, but that's how I operate.

Re: Google Chrome

Took you awhile to update to Firefox 3. The update was released about 3weeks ago.

FF3 > FF2.
Google Chrome Beta > Any other browser beta.

Re: Google Chrome

Is there any way to get to your bookmarks when you're not on the main page? I feel like I've looked everywhere and I can't find it.

Re: Google Chrome

I'm not gonna start using Google chrome until it's out of it's BETA version. Then again i may still stick with Firefox. My friends seem to like Chrome though.

Re: Google Chrome

I'm going to wait a while to see what happens with this new Browser. For now, I am perfectly happy with IE and Firefox.

Re: Google Chrome

I tried the beta of Chrome a while ago, I thought it had potential, but it didn't actually work that well.

Re: Google Chrome

Chrome works well, and is faster for just looking up one quick fact or something, but my main problem is it doesn't support Arcade OX, so for this, I still use IE.

Re: Google Chrome

My opinions.
Chrome is still beta. It shows lots of promise but it isn't a finished product yet. The other browsers, IE and FF, will probably still ideas from Chrome.

IE 6 sucked and gave IE a horrible reputation but now it is up to IE 8 and it isn't that bad anymore.

I still use FF but the gap between them is closing.

Re: Google Chrome

Yeah, I used FF for a while, but it was kind of odd after using IE since I started using the internet. Eventually I just stopped the FF thing and went back to IE.
