I'm sick of Google's broken and beta code. Even their search engine's delete results system is broken (not to mention useless). Google needs to earn back its reputation of making quality products rather than adopting Microsoft's policy of having their hands in every last niche, no matter how half-baked the outcome.

All your browser are belong to us

For me, developing IBM Cognos BI reports, Chrome nor FF can render the prompt select boxes in the right place. They both left-justify all screen objects. I have had improved performance installing Foxit Reader for PDF rendering. The Inquirer's pop-over flash Ads forced me to disable shockwave. At least when rendering reports in xml and html, IE appears to be the only reliable solution.

Bottom line: it has to work correctly for whatever reason. Backwards compatability cannot be chucked like bathwater with baby.

I applaud Google's efforts. Since Cognos is now IBM, perhaps, perhaps, perhaps...

Were you able to hear the chairs crashing through the office windows in Redmond??

Are Google doing a Microsoft and starting to dumb down their normally smart decisions? Maybe regretting their bizarre decision to a) create their own browser when they had a great success already in Firefox and b) basing it on the awful Safari engine??

Downloaded and ran it... Oh dear Blue Screen crash...avoid it like the plague!!!

I thought only the browser in Android-based mobiles was based on Webkit? Is Chromium based on Webkit too?

I'm not sure if I think this is a good thing or not, but it's interesting. Perhaps for IE6 users, but most people using IE6 probably can't install activex controls or any applications for that matter, so it's probably useless. As a jab at microsoft it's funny though.

Combine that with IEtab, and Firefox is your ultimate web rendering test platform!

"All pages opened with Internet Exploder are then rendered with Chrome's WebKit-based engine."

Only websites that include "<meta " will be rendered with the plugin.

I for one won't be touching this. All my data for search AND additional browsing tied to 1 vendor, no thanks. One on the reasons I use Firefox but not IE, and use Google butwon't use Bing! on my home PC's.

Tried it out and it killed my computer twice in the last few hours. I had to do a hard reboot each time because the computer was completly frozen by this google rubbish

just use chrome?
