Anybody else using it? Been a Firefox lover for years, but liking the simplicity and ease of use of Chrome ..... gonna give it a try for a while .....
One thing annoyed me when I tried it - links were always underlined and I couldn't set it otherwise.
I know it's a trivial personal preference, but it annoyed me. I don't know if they've fixed that now, as many people complained.
Yup, been using it for some time now. Firefox started getting a bit heavy, and IE is best not mentioned...
Been using it for ages. I can start Chrome, do something and close it before Firefox has got off it's arse and started thinking about showing me my home page.
Been using it for a while now and will take a lot to make me change. In a slow reception area I found it to be much better than firefox, in fact a transformation but my bro in law who lives on top of the exchange finds no difference and stayed with ff
i like the automatic spell check for those iliterates like me.
I actually did not like it !!
It seemed to move things about on the screen, and did not display every piccy,
It could of just been a setting problem, but im to lazy and went back to IE
This was on an old version of Xp,

i always use it now, much quicker and easier to use than IE, much simpler and less clogged up at the top.
I like how the address bar is also a search bar, and how it auto fills most used websites so all i do is type l then hit enter and im on LCB
Very useful.
My only problem is that shockwave flash always crashes on it and ive tried googling it but it says its common problem with chrome.
have used chrome for ages. hands down kills ff and ie. never had any of the problems described above
As ashg says. works for me.
Personally not so keen. Tried it but don't like the way it looks. Can't quite work out why but something annoys me about it! But it is quite
quick.
It also doesn't display the CSS details on my website properly which is a bit annoying.

Chrome is the best I've found for the lappy, but still not a patch on OS X.

I use it all the time - a very unfussy look, very fast, as reliable as any other browser and it synchronises across all my computers - no going back for me
I've had infinite troubles with Chrome. It caused plugins to crash all the time with that very annoying informal message and cartoon smiley to
accompany it.
It did work fast, just completely unreliable in my experience. So I'm sticking to Firefox!
Google chrome is very average in my opinion. I am a mac user so obviously I am running with Safari, which I must say is excellent on a macbook. Im not
sure how it is on a windows computer but might be worth a go

Firefox 4 is just out - it's supposed to be much faster.
We'll see whether it's better, or whether they've mucked up my favourite browser...

I've been using it for quite a while and wouldn't use anything else! I do have one problem with an ActiveX plugin that's needed to access my CCTV system (great for seeing what's going on outside or what Junior is up to!) so I run IE just for that.

I use Chrome all the time, EXCEPT when spending money. It has crashed on some secure websites in the past so I don't trust it!! Tesco digital
used to hate Chrome, dunno if it still does.
If I'm spending, I'll use IE
Chrome isn't mature yet ---- not yet usable as as your only browser. This time nest year ?
