One complaint I have with Chrome so far, is that I can't click the third button and have the page scroll down at a smooth rate. Any tips on how to fix it, if anyone has noticed and been able to fix it?

It's a feature, and it's just not there. I noticed that right away, considering I do that a lot. It is quite annoying.

Chrome was fast and had a pretty nice UI. However, it was like using firefox without all my precious extensions. Also, for some reason I was unable to scroll up using the middle mouse button in it.

Yeah, I can't scroll up using trackpad scroll.

You can keep waiting for quite a while then, since progres on the Mac and Linux ports seems to progressing rather slowly.

Ooh, a Mac version!

[EDIT] Epic fail. I think I'll wait until Google releases an official version.

Six hours into a download, two minutes left, I get pissed off at some outside occurrence, and out of frustration, close Chrome. There goes six fucking hours.

Just fyi, there exists now a chromium-based browser without the "google phone home" features of chrome: Iron. I haven't tried it myself, it's also Windows-only.

Frankly i don't see the appeal, it's yet another browser, only this one's coded primarily for windows, with not real attempts to make it portable, with no concerns for memory management, with a big silly blue interface, if it weren't a google product would anyone care enough to try it?

Hey, look, a webkit based browser, but this one's even less functional, i bet it's awesome http://code.google.com/p/arora/

paradox, epic phail wrt that analogy...

I think Tremulant does not comprehend the main features of Chrome.

process per tab and super fast js execution? yes, i do comprehend it but i don't find other browsers unstable or too slow, i guess i'm doing something wrong.

I guess you are the only person in the world who did not have his whole browser crash with one page screwing up!

Congratulations.

[PS] Compare the Chrome default theme with the FireFox default theme and then come back and still call the Chrome default theme 'big'.
