I like the interface of this new browser as well as the speed.New interesting features were added to this browser comparing to IE7.But how about the basic stuff wich I got used with? Like AutoFill ? Or where is the google search bar ??
On my PC I have a fingerprint sensor that is logging me in to all websites, just with a swipe of a finger.
This feature does not work on Chrome.So I'll come back for now to the old IE7...

Ha 'Beta'! Google are very smart noticed how long GMail stayed in beta for years why?, Because when you need support there tag line is 'It's in Beta so there will be some problems' no doubt people will understand what Chrome Beta is really about.

MS is working on version 8 of their IE and has invested hard in security. Google will learn that it is easy to throw a sunk works project out, but REALLY tough to build in security, and PROTECT it's customers from all the threats on the internet...

Wait until Black Hat fans jump on the exploitation bandwagon
