Nice browser but not for me... yet.

I like Google and their attempts to make cool, new, and inovative products, especially their online ones, and the price is usually right (Free). But when it comes to Chrome, as of yet they have no support to Applets, which some people might think is a good thing - I disagree though. I love java applet games. For example, the wow @ work: Runescape. :)

Also, FLASH loads and runs a lot slower with Chrome, I'm told by a MAC user that this is because of a bug in the Apple WebKit that Chrome was created with.

I love the Paste & Go feature in the URL bar, but that's a clear rip-off from Opera, along with the Most Visited thumbnails that come up when you open a new tab. A nicer feature would perhaps be allowing you to choose which sites to display there.

And is it just me, but what is up with all the blue?! Give me proper skin support please.  :)

And the scariest thing of all? The amount of data google will be able to collect from me and my browsing habbits. Do I have anything to hide? No, but that's not the point of privacy. I'm sure I leave enough of a trail as it is. By using Chrome I'll be lighting it up with flashing neon signs.

I do like the idea of only a tab crashing instead of my whole browser, but it really doesn't happen to me that often when using Firefox or IE7, (I use both for site testing).

I also hope that I can use Chrome as a test for MAC browsers on my PC, rather then finding someone with a MAC and asking them to check a site out for them on their systems.
