I would use it at work but it doesn't work for the HelpDesk software we use.

The lines of the grid with the calls in are clickable to enter the call but in Chrome it doesn't work.

Similarly in FF and IE I can reorder the columns of the grid and sort the content but nothing like that works in Chrome.

I've tried Chromium again. The first try some months ago didn't go well.

This time? It's slower than Slow Jock McSlow from the small Scottish village of Slowster gaining his degree in Slowness from Slow University.

Gah! I've gone back to FF 3.6. I'm really rather disappointed tbh. :(

It's pathetically slow, even compared to FF with a sh1tload of add-ons! :(

I tried, really I did.

But it couldn't even render Bratty's sig properly.

Somewhat ironically, and as recommended by M$, it's a lot better at displaying HotFAIL than FF!* :roll:

* You're talking a good 10 seconds response time between each click, and your FF tabs lock up in the meantime. It was so ridiculous I was amazed to find out I was among thousands around the world - and they still haven't fixed it after about a month! :x

I use it in linux, but Safari on OSX and Windows - it's really good with the new extensions. I've not used Firefox for a while and IE9 is like stepping back to early 2009.

Chrome isn't bad, but not quite good enough to topple Safari IMHO.

I find chrome crazy fast, I love it. Also, on my wife's netbook it's great because it only has the one bar at the top of the screen, so you can see a reasonable amount of the page.

So do I - sometimes. Other times though it's just stupidly slow.

I guess most of the problem is that I've got FF tuned to the way I want to work and don't know how to bend Chrome to things the same way.

Oh and the GUI is fugly
