"Fast & effective!"
Version: Google Chrome 21.0.1180.79
Pros
When it comes to speed, Chrome can't be beat. I hate to wait for slower browsers to get me where I'm headed.
Cons
Chrome isn't always fast when it comes to YouTube & other graphics intensive applications, but it's really not much worse than the competition.
Summary
If there's such a thing as the perfect browser, I've yet to find it, but for now, Chrome works best for my needs.

"Its a Good Browser From a Clueless Company."
Version: Google Chrome 21.0.1180.79
Pros
Its fast and stable, much more than I can say about any of the Internet Explorer iterations.
Cons
Google announced it was dropping igoogle, the app driven home page. It will no longer offer or support third party apps for your homepage effective Sep of 2013. They are apparently dropping desktop and laptop users from their consideration, and focusing everything on pads and smartphone users. This is shortsighted and will come back to haunt Google. An old marketing maxim says " A customer lost is a customer lost forever." Google is going to learn this very painfully.
It is also dropping Google Groups for another one of their social sites. I don't know if their will be a 100% transfer from Groups to Google+ or one of the other sites. This is an annoyance, but it may not be that bad.Summary
Its a good, fast, stable minimalist browser. Not many bells or whistles, and the embellishments like a good selection of third party apps will no longer be supported in the future. Will computer users continue to use it when igoogle is gone? I downloaded Mozilla's Firefox that is faster and loaded Yahoo as my homepage. I probably won't keep Chrome after September 2013. Until then, two fast browsers are very handy to have.

"Chrome is a good product"
Version: Google Chrome 21.0.1180.79
Pros
works somewhat well, fast, and other browers should take note of the auto fill for forms
Cons
FLAKY, FLAKY, FLAKY writting by hackers at Chrome, tabs move too much, NO WAY TO GET THEM TO STOP MOVING. Chrome has holes in it when you click on it Chrome dissappears and another screen shows up. CAN NOT EXPECT CHROME to work the same way on a daily basis, and then there are the hackers that attempt to write Chrome and do not know how to test it, where is quilty control. Hackers at Chrome will nilly just write whatever even if it doesn't work, just put it out there and the user be left in limbo.
Summary
would hate to be without Chrome, does install easy but has lots of flaky written crap.

"Between crashes I was working 4 days on my computer."
Version: Google Chrome 21.0.1180.79
Pros
I didn't find any.. it screwed up my whole system and I had to repair everything...
Cons
Why is it that we can't be satisfied with things when they work fine? I had to run chkdsk and ended up with a "new" attached to my system when I ran Belarc advisor.. It was a nightmare of installing and uninstalling Chrome.. and finally I found where I had downloaded version 20 and that is what I am running now.. Deleting and re-installing till I was so frustrated.. I like Chrome but will stop using it if things happen again..
Summary
I lost all of my restore points and even had to redo my updates from Microsoft.. All because I tried to keep my browser up-to-date.. In summary up-to-date just isn't what it is cracked up to be and in computers and in life maybe we need to take the time to make sure something is right before we put it out there and run the risk of screwing things up for others..
