"You're guna eat lightning and you're guna crap thunder!"
Pros: Fast. Simple. Sleek. Fast.
Cons: No Ad-Block style feature that i can tell yet. But i see them in the near future. After first downloading I did have a few problems opening pdf's in the browser, but after visiting some sites and getting latest app updates I've had no problems.
Summary: Finally a brand new web browser! Personally, I love it. I'm already using it as my Fire Fox replacement. When I first downloaded it there was a little work to be done though. Latest versions of various web apps (i.e. Java, Flash, etc...) had to be installed. But once everything was up to date I haven't had enough problems to sway me back to old faithful Fire Fox. Plug-ins are needed desperately in my opinion. Ad-Block is one that I just can't live without in Fire Fox and I hope since the browser is open source that an add-ons feature will come out soon and Ad-Block or a good equivalent will be released. Bottom-line, If you want your browser to "...eat lightning and crap thunder!..." then I strongly recommend giving Chrome a test run for a few weeks to see if it is to your liking.
